Pasadena Firefighter’s Help Prepare Turkey & Fill Blessing Bags for Over 350 People on Thanksgiving

On Wednesday, November 26th, at 3:00 p.m. Pasadena Firefighters and the Fink family will help prepare food and fill blessing (gift) bags for Thanksgiving (27th) when the Pasadena Sandwich Company will serve over 350 meals to families in Pasadena who are transitioning from homelessness to self-sufficiency.

The “Thanksgiving Share A Meal” is a collaborative effort of the Pasadena Fire Department, Pasadena Unified School District, Pasadena Sandwich Company and the Stephen E. Fink Memorial Fund.

The Pasadena Sandwich Company is a Pasadena landmark. The Fire Department has a long standing tradition of giving back to the community it serves and has supported the Pasadena Sandwich Company in their ongoing outreach to bring greater awareness to families facing difficult times. Invitations to families for this event will be coordinated through the Pasadena Unified School District.

The collaborative event is to recognize the difficulties of families in transition and offer them a nice dining experience at the Pasadena Sandwich Company so they can partake in the true meaning of the Thanksgiving holiday.

The Pasadena Sandwich Company is located at 259 Sierra Madre Villa Avenue, Pasadena.
