Our Youth Bureau INTERFACE Program’s Annual Thanksgiving Food Drive will run from October 15 to November 15. Last year’s Thanksgiving Food Drive provided hearty Thanksgiving meals to 956 families in Brookhaven. Without the generous donations received during the drive, this would not have been possible.
