Thanksgiving Boxes
Sandy Community Action Center distributes approximately 200 Thanksgiving boxes consisting of the fixings for a delicious Thanksgiving feast every year. These are assembled by a large volunteer group of churches who meet at Abundant Life Church. On the Monday before Thanksgiving, food box recipients collect their boxes from a designated area. In past years, the food and funding has come from generous donations from local area churches, businesses and individuals.
