Pangea Cares to Distribute Turkey Baskets to 125 Families in Chicago and Indianapolis for Thanksgiving
Chicago, IL, November 09, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Pangea Cares, a 501c3 nonprofit organization that serves underrepresented communities in Chicago, Indianapolis and Baltimore, will prepare and distribute 125 Thanksgiving turkey baskets to residents of Pangea Properties, a private Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT), on Saturday, November 17 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
In time for Thanksgiving, Pangea Cares will be making the holiday special for families in need living in Chicago and Indianapolis. The Turkey Giveaway initiative is a part of Pangea Cares’ mission to improve the communities that Pangea Properties owns and operates.
“This initiative is one way for us to give back to our communities, specifically our residents in need. We chose residents who we know are hard workers and are deserving of little help this holiday season. We wanted to ensure that families have a good feast on Thanksgiving because everyone deserves to have a fulfilling holiday. I’m glad that we are able to make a difference,” said Chanelle Cromwell, Programs Director for Pangea Cares.
Prior to the event, employees will prepare and assemble baskets to be delivered on Nov 17. Each basket will include a variety of traditional Thanksgiving items such as a turkey, green beans, stuffing, cornbread, corn, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, carrots, cranberry sauce, and more. In addition, the baskets will also include a personalized guide that contains recipes and cooking tips to prepare the perfect Thanksgiving dinner.
Volunteers of the organization will personally deliver turkey baskets to the homes of 125 Pangea residents.
Kelsey Lake, Operations Associate at Pangea, is looking forward to seeing the faces of Pangea residents brighten as they receive the baskets. “The turkey giveaway allows those of us in non-resident facing roles to have the opportunity to interact face-to-face with residents. This is such a great way to give back and connect with those in our neighborhoods,” she added.
Last year, Pangea Cares participated in the Chicago Basket Brigade and delivered 30 baskets to Pangea Properties residents. The organization plans to more than double its distribution this year and continue efforts in years to come.
