Holiday Dinner - Georgia Street Community

**cub** · November-27-09, 10:29 PM

On Saturday, December 12th, the
Georgia Street Community
will be holding its
2nd Annual Holiday Dinner.

We will begin serving at 4:00 p.m. and continue until approximately 7:00 p.m. This year's dinner will be held at Baptist Hill Missionary Church, in their Community Room. This is a much larger space than last year as we expect to serve between 120 and 140 people.

Obviously cash donations are appreciated, but in addition,
we are asking for donations of the following:

Turkeys, cooked and carved
Stuffing
Mashed Potatoes
Sweet Potatoes
Macaroni & Cheese
Corn or Green Beans
Rolls and Butter
Pumpkin Pies or Other Desserts
Beverages
Paper and Plastic Products

Please visit our website for more information
and a form to donate food or volunteer your time:

Again, we know that most Detroiters are struggling this year, including the members of GSCC. We hope that you can find it in your heart to help us with this very important event, even if it's just to give your time to help us prepare, serve and clean-up.

Thank you again for your continuing support of
our efforts to improve our community.

Another great event for the neighborhood ... Cub and Blueidone, DaveMarc and MamaCub ... they worked for days to make the event special. It made a huge impact on the neighbors... as well as the CNN crew that was there.

Thank you, Gnome...but we couldn't do what we do without the generosity of others, including you. We were very happy to see you last night...and your dessert donations were greatly appreciated!

Thank you to each and every person who gave time, money or food and helped us make this event a success. We fed approximately 100 people at the Dinner, and another large group at the Rescue Mission with what food was leftover. We saw several new faces and had some new people from the neighborhood sign up to help with our efforts to improve the neighborhood.

On a personal note, I want to say what an honor it is to be involved with this group of people who work tirelessly to help others for no other reason than the fact that it needs to be done. With all the terrible things you hear about the City of Detroit, it's nice to know that there are those who offer a sense of hope and community to it's residents. Thank you for asking me to be a part of GSCC.
