Regional Food Bank Seeks Volunteers for Historic Holiday Giveaway
Nov. 19, 025, PLATTSBURGH — Clinton Community College is proud to partner with the Regional Food Bank to host a Thanksgiving meal distribution on Saturday, Nov. 22. Four North Country sites will provide a combined total of 1,250 complete holiday meal boxes to serve more than 5,000 residents across Clinton, Franklin, Washington and Warren counties.
The Plattsburgh distribution site will be located in the lower parking lot of the Institute for Advanced Manufacturing at Clinton Community College, 53 Clinton Point Drive. Meal pick-up begins at 10 a.m. and will continue while supplies last.
Each 30-pound box includes traditional Thanksgiving favorites, from turkey to cranberry sauce, so families can enjoy a home-cooked holiday meal together.
“We’re proud to host this Thanksgiving meal distribution at Clinton’s Institute for Advanced Manufacturing,” said Ken Knelly, Acting President of Clinton Community College. “Working with the Regional Food Bank and community partners will ensure more families across the North Country can enjoy a complete holiday meal together at no cost.”
The Regional Food Bank is still seeking volunteers to help direct traffic and distribute boxes. To sign up or learn more, visit the Regional Food Bank website.
