INDIANAPOLIS — Several organizations across central Indiana are making sure that Hoosiers have everything they need to make their holiday meals special.
Charity Cares Inc. and The Bridge Indy held a holiday food distribution on Tuesday night.
The west side church gave out turkeys, hams, sides, and seasonings.
“Holiday time is about love, right? It’s about family, it’s about togetherness,” Pastor Jeffery Thomas II said. “And sometimes what's not on the table will keep us from showing up to the table. What we've done this year was give you everything you need for the table. All you gotta do is show up.”
The event had enough for around 300 families and is one of many distributions over the next few weeks.
“We're grateful to be able to distribute food for the families in the neighborhood that we serve,” Thomas said.
The distribution was done in partnership with the Indianapolis Office of Public Health and Safety.
There will be four more food distributions throughout Nov.
