The Rescue Mission of Roanoke is scheduled to hold a Thanksgiving Feast on Thursday to make sure community members can enjoy a warm meal on the holiday.
The event will run from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 402 Fourth Street SE, Roanoke, VA 24013. The feast is free of charge and open to the community with no registration required.
The mission will prepare lunch for 500 people on Thanksgiving Day, including:
- Individuals and families staying in the mission’s emergency shelter
- Neighbors who are unsheltered
- Community members with housing but experiencing food insecurity
- Anyone who would otherwise spend the holiday alone and wants to share Thanksgiving with others
- Those interested can dine in or use a curbside drive-thru to pick up a ready-to-go hot meal if they prefer or need to remain in their vehicle.
