Susquehanna County TREHAB Feed A Friend 2021
2021 WNEP/Trehab 37TH Annual Feed A Friend Thanksgiving Program
Last year, with your help of donations, the Feed-A-Friends program provided “turkey and all the trimmings” to 831 families, elderly and homebound (2,826 individuals in Susquehanna County.
As the pandemic continues, so has the increase of individuals facing the hardship of unemployment and pandemic related issues. Many have visited Trehab Food Banks which have stayed open/fully operational with expanded hours throughout and continue to do so along with all other Trehab Services.
The pandemic also affected their Annual Thanksgiving Feed A Friend program Food Drives. Due to ongoing current circumstances, the Feed A Friend will still go on without food drives. WNEP Channel 16 is advising everyone to concentrate on monetary donations. All Thanksgiving food is being ordered from local stores and distributors to follow COVID safe food handling procedures. With the 2021 Feed a Friend Program restructure, we will not have a designated give away day. The program has been restructured for their staff to hand out Thanksgiving food throughout the month of November and will utilize vouchers at the local grocery stores for their recipients to pick up their turkeys. It was a great success for them last year.
The Churches of Susquehanna County have been long time supporters of this program. If you are able to consider giving a donations, you can ear mark it Feed A Friend Program or mail donation directly to Trehab Feed A Friend, PO Box 366, Montrose, PA 18801
