Thanks to the wondrous generosity of our members, the civic was able to provide Thanksgiving meals and gift cards to three families in the community to help them refill their pantry this season.

We extend our thanks our members, to the family of John Simonello, and to the Plaza Marine group for helping us support these Hicksville families.
Thank you to Lee Ave school for their ongoing partnership in identifying the families and helping distribute the gifts.
Many thanks to our Community Service committee, chaired by Chris and Nick Mirro, for their tireless labor in shopping for all the goods and packaging, and to Irene Guarasci for the extra set of hands in wrapping the record setting number of presents provided by the civic.

Thanksgiving is a time when we remember those in our community who are not as fortunate as we are in celebrating a family meal together on Thanksgiving Day. Through Lee Avenue School, we were able to help donate a Thanksgiving meal for three families and fill their cupboards for the Holiday Season. The Community Service committee would like to thank our members for their enormous generosity to our Thanksgiving Food Drive. It was a huge success, enabling us to donate to a third family this year.
A special thank you to Foodtown for donating gift certificates for the purchase of a turkey for each family and to T Mobile for donating 2 cases of cereal. A thank you to Mrs. Stam and Mrs. Kravitz for making us part of this successful food drive.
