On life meaning: “You have to accept whatever comes and the only important thing is that you meet it with courage and with the best you have to give”. - Eleanor Roosevelt

During the Thanksgiving season we distributed a combination of 350 turkey coupons, frozen turkeys, baskets, gift certificates, dinners, etc. helping many who otherwise would not have a special dinner for the holiday. A very special thanks to the following organizations, schools and individuals for believing in Trocaire and helping us fight hunger in our community:

• Lions Club for delivering Thanksgiving baskets
• Rotary of Huntington for food drive and donation
• Rotary of Melville for turkey baskets
• Cub Scouts for food donation
• Finley Middle School for food drive
• Ancient Order of Hibernians for their food drive
• La Viola for free Thanksgiving dinners for our homebound.
• Drivers who delivered the Thanksgiving dinners on
Thanksgiving morning.
• Crest Hollow Country Club for hams and their endless supply of food
• St. Patrick’s School for their food drive
• Southdown Food Market for their food donation
• Coordinators and volunteers for their time and effort
• Parishioners and non-parishioners for their generosity
