We’ve received this message from the Brooklyn Heights Association on behalf of Heights and Hills:
Please consider making (or buying) a pie for the Thanksgiving Dinner served to elderly citizens at Grace Church.
The dinner is organized by Heights and Hills, a provider of supportive services to community dwelling older adults in Brooklyn, and it is open to senior citizens, regardless of their economic status.
This is an annual Brooklyn Heights tradition, held at Grace Church at NOON on Thanksgiving Day. A a full dinner (cooked and donated by the Cobble Hill Health Center) will be served at the church to 250 people, and many meals will be delivered to frail, homebound elderly.
If you can either bake or buy a pie (apple, pumpkin, pecan, etc.) and deliver it to Grace Church before noon on Thursday, it will be warmly appreciated!
Volunteers are also needed to deliver meals (on foot or in cars) and for the much less glamorous job of cleaning up. If you can help, please call the Heights and Hills office (718-596-8789) to let them know.
Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving to all!
