Dear friends, thank you for your support of this project over the past several months. Although Burbank Temporary Aid Center (BTAC) provides food for low income families and individuals all year long, it is especially important during the holidays.
BTAC distributed over 500 turkeys, along with stuffing, potatoes, etc, for a complete Thanksgiving meal. This allowed the families to continue thier own traditions within thier own homes, rather than going to a 'soup kitchen' - or going without. And then, we did the same in December for the Christmas holiday.
Many members of our community dropped off some of the canned and packaged goods we needed. With your donations, BTAC was able to fill the gaps in what was donated. Turkeys, fresh potatoes, etc. were purchased to help complete the meals.
Now, BTAC is receiving calls and notes from those who were assisted, thanking us for helping them through the holidays. But thier thanks should be passed along to you. Thanks to you and our donors, together, we make things happen!
Thanks and Happy New Year!
