The Effingham County FISH Organization is sponsoring the 17th Annual Free Effingham County Thanksgiving Day Dinner on Thursday, November 25.

Due to ongoing concerns over the COVID-19 virus, there will be no congregate meal.

All meals will be delivered or available for curbside pickup. Meal delivery will take place between 10am and 12 noon. Curbside pickup will be available at Cornerstone Christian Church, 3600 South Banker in Effingham between 11am and 12 noon.

This event is free and open to all Effingham County residents and their familes. Donations are always greatly appreciated and may be sent to: FISH, PO Box 473, Effingham.

To reserve home-delivered meals and curbside pickups, phone the Senior Center at 217-347-5569 by 12 noon on November 22, 2021. Residents receiving delivered meals will need to have a cooler or space available for volunteers to put the meals.

Volunteers are needed to help package and deliver meals. They will begin cutting pies and packaging meals at 9am. To volunteer, phone Susan Elke at 217-868-5913.
