One of New City's local partners, Common Heart, is gearing up to deliver 1,500 turkey baskets to families throughout the local community who would not have a Thanksgiving Day celebration without a little help from their friends. Each basket includes everything a family needs to make their own meal—a frozen turkey, veggies, stuffing, sweet potatoes, fresh potatoes, dessert, and cranberry sauce!
Common Heart needs help to reach their goal!
