Eat  -- and serve -- this Thanksgiving

A letter from the Crayton family:

Almeta Crayton’s ‘Everybody Eats’ is in its 16th season and still going strong.  Upon her passing in October, she was working on this year’s event, and the family wants to continue her mission in her memory.

Ms. Almeta always strived to have people come out and enjoy the company of others and take meals to the homebound and elderly

We greatly appreciate organizations making space available to help insure the success of this COMMUNITY ORGANIZED event.   Without the community coming together to honor the memory of Ms. Almeta, this event would not be continuing. 

This year we are making sure ‘Everybody Eats’ at Stamper Commons at Stephens College -- and to deliver cooked meals to those homebound, helping serve 300-500 people.   You can make a difference by making a donation.   And, of course, STOP BY! because 'Everybody Eats.'  

To volunteer call 573-228-6340.  Questions, please call (573) 825-5263, (573) 673-4087, or email everybodyeatsalways at yahoo.com.
