Thanksgiving is almost here, and we’re delighted to join fellow Martha member Sandy Bonneville and the good folks at St. Aloysius once again for their annual Thanksgiving Day Dinner. Every year, volunteers cook 800-1,000 homemade meals for the needy. Sandy also delivers dinners to homebound people and those unsheltered on the streets and in camps in the Hilltop and Franklinton neighborhoods.
St. Martha Giving Circle has the sweetest job of all…bringing the pies!
