Helping 160 Families at Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving Food Drive provides food baskets for 160 families in the community.

The DeAnza Lions want to thank Safeway , the community, the DeAnza Lions and the LEO club of Monta Vista High School volunteers for making our Annual Thanksgiving Food Drive this past weekend a huge success.

With food and cash donations, we are able to provide Thanksgiving food boxes to 160 families in our community, including low income families with kids in Hughes Elementary and Merritt Trace Elementary schools as well as the Sunnyvale Support Network for battered women, Even Start Program and others. Excess food donations were taken to the Sunnyvale Community Services to supplement their food bank.

2011 has been another tough year for many people in our community. It is with much gratitude that the DeAnza Lions Club acknowledges the donation of food and funds of well over $ 12,000 during this year’s food drive.

We thank each and every volunteer, especially the members of the LEO club, and the owners of the Safeway Stores, for donating time, energy, goodwill and money to this worthwhile cause.

Happy faces and kind words of thanks met the Lions who delivered the gift baskets.

A big Thank You again to the patrons of the Safeway Stores for opening their heart and wallets to help people in need.

Happy Thanksgiving!
