For more than 35 years, the Bishop Stang High School community has committed to supplying more than 150 complete Thanksgiving meals for those in our community. Over 30 turkeys were cooked by faculty, staff and families — with money raised for the turkey purchase from the students, and donations for the Thanksgiving meal fixings were brought in by each class.
Bishop Stang’s Food Service company Flik made all the stuffing and purchased other items. The bus to deliver the food was donated by Trembly’s. Market Basket gave a substantial discount on the purchase of the turkeys. Student Council members spent the day on Wednesday preparing the complete meals and then they were delivered to St. Vincent’s Home in Fall River for those in need. Additionally, 20 food baskets were delivered to St. Vincent’s Home that were laundry baskets overflowing with all the food needed for Thanksgiving (minus the turkey).
It is part of Stang’s commitment to service that they partner with local agencies to support our community.
