The Open Door needs help to give Holiday Meal Baskets to local families this year. A donation of $30 provides a turkey, potatoes, butternut squash, apples, stuffing, cranberry and more. These baskets make a big difference to people in need during the holidays, and will be distributed to registered families and individuals who need a little help setting the table for the November and December holidays.
Each basket contains all the fixings a family of four will need to prepare a festive holiday meal. Each Baske will include:
- Turkey (14-16 pounds)
- Stuffing Mix
- Potatoes
- Carrots
- Butternut squash
- Apples
- Cranberry Sauce
- Dinner Rolls
- Gravy
Make checks payable to: The Open Door, write “turkey” in the memo line, and mail it to 28 Emerson Avenue, Gloucester, MA 01930. The Open Door serves residents of Gloucester, Rockport, Manchester-by-the-Sea, Essex, and Ipswich. To donate online or for more information please visit the Open Door website.
