On behalf of the Milford Youth Center staff, we would like to express how grateful we are to the community for enabling us to continue to offer Thanksgiving meals to our students! While this year Thanksgiving Dinner at the Youth Center looked very different, taking place in socially distant groups, we were able to send everyone in our Extended Day program home with a bag of canned goods and a grocery store gift card.
We would like to thank our local community businesses and organizations: Amazon’s Milford Regional Delivery Station for donating canned goods, Gene’s Variety for donating 24 individually packed turkey dinners, Oliva’s for providing the delicious whoopie pie desserts, and the Hockomock Area YMCA for donating grocery store gift cards to go out to the families! Thank you also to Milford TV for providing us with the equipment and training to film parts of the event and interview staff and students about the event! Finally, MYC and YMCA remote learners and extended day participants also made Thanksgiving cards for the Senior Center to give out with their Thanksgiving meals! We hope you all had a safe and good Thanksgiving!
