SolAmor Hospice, a leading provider of hospice care, hopes to serve as many as 31 area families through its Thanksgiving Food Drive going on now.
SolAmor Hospice located on Oxford Road is seeking food donations such as boxed or canned cranberry sauce, potatoes, green beans and stuffing , to help serve families in Connecticut with a traditional Thanksgiving meal.
Food donations are being accepted at 4 Oxford Road, Suite E-4 Milford, CT through November 18, 2011 Monetary donations can be made online through the Connecticut Food Bank's virtual food drive. www.ctfoodbank.org
In 2010, SolAmor Hospice, located in 10 states, teamed with hospitals, long-term care centers, assisted living centers, and grocery stores that supplied the turkeys to collect enough Thanksgiving meal items to feed more than 800 families in the communities where SolAmor operates.
“This is a wonderful way to help those that are in need while bringing our team together for such a worthwhile cause” said Louise Giardina, administrator, SolAmor Hospice.
SolAmor Hospice has been participating in the food drive since it was formed in 2006.
