Dear Annette,

It feels good knowing that someone is thinking of my family when I'm having trouble providing for them.  Timothy Thompson

There are over 50 Chattanooga families with a loved one participating in our Stephen's Table initiative in prison - and all are struggling to make ends meet. Thanksgiving shouldn't be depressing, and we are reaching out to you to add a little levity to the lives of the people we are serving by sponsoring a Thanksgiving dinner.   

 

In the past, we have invited people to drop off food at our office for Thanksgiving baskets.  However, most preferred to help by donating the cost of the the meal instead.  Therefore this year, we are just asking for the donation. One meal cost $35 but any amount will be warmly received and greatly appreciated. 

 

Just point and click to make a donation and support our work during the holidays.

 

We will do the shopping, assemble the baskets and coordinate the volunteers to distribute them to our families. Each basket will also include a card with the following note:

 

This comes to you from someone who cares about you. All we ask is that you take care of yourself enough to be able to do this for someone else someday. Happy Thanksgiving!     

 

Thank you very much for your help and your continued support of our mission of second chances and the families we serve.

Thank you for supporting second chances at CEi,
Dempsey Signature
