November 30, 2021With the holiday season approaching, Catholic Charities, Diocese of Metuchen’s Mobile Family Success Center (MFSC) partnered with the Edison Housing Authority (EHA) to provide Thanksgiving turkeys, fresh produce, canned goods, and toiletry items at the Robert Holmes Garden public facility. On Thursday, November 18th, 2021, approximately 110 families received Thanksgiving holiday care packages to help bring families together and enjoy a home-cooked meal.
An additional forty families and seniors were assisted at the Edison Housing Authority’s satellite office, located at Jules Engel Garden in Edison, and were provided the option with selecting a turkey or whole chicken for their Thanksgiving dinner. REPLENISH, an organizer of food distribution in Middlesex County who networks with over 140 partners to address hunger and food insecurity, provided a pallet’s worth of nonperishable items to help serve families in need. Through this event, Catholic Charities’ Mobile Family Success Center was able to fulfill its mission to provide to those in need through community partnerships.
