This would not have been possible without the assistance of those who purchased food, provided cakes and pies, prepared and served food, furnished transportation for meals and guests, or assisted in cleaning. Thank you to all the helpers who exhibited the true spirit of Christmas.

A special thank you to Steve Metz and Ken Webber of NIACC for helping prepare the meal, Armour Eckrich for donating ham, HyVee Stores for collecting donations and providing advertisement, Marshall and Swift for providing table linens, the Globe Gazette and other media for promoting the event, and the Community Kitchen for assisting with the meal service.
