We felt so much love this Thanksgiving season 💚 Before our November distribution ended we received INCREDIBLE 'blessing baskets' from real estate agent Masha Halpern and her clients. With non-perishables and a grocery gift card, they helped jump start Thanksgiving meals for so many of our families!
