Dixwell volunteers, in conjunction with the cops, are gearing up for a massive distribution of meals to hungry people on Thanksgiving, in memory of recently departed community leader Mae Ola Riddick.
Organizers need donated food. And they need volunteers to distribute food at the substation on Wednesday afternoon Nov. 25; and to seniors’ homes on Thanksgiving morning.
Contact Metashar Dillon to get involved: Call (860)-810‑7153 or email .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).
The campaign is called the “MOR Food Drive” — after Riddick’s initials. Read about that here here and here.
