70 low-income families to receive Thanksgiving baskets

Community donates to support

MADISON, Wis. — Through the Madison School & Community Recreation’s donation campaign, 70 low-income families in the Allied neighborhood will receive complete Thanksgiving dinners.

For the past 17 years, MSCR has coordinated the project, which is held at the Allied Learning Center.

Memorial High School sports teams, MSCR staff, Queen of Peace church members and Stephens Elementary staff and students all donate to the dinner baskets.

“We are so touched by community members’ generosity year after year donating food so families in the Allied neighborhood can share a Thanksgiving meal,” Laura Harrington, the MSCR Allied Learning Center director, said.
