The annual Saint Anne's "Sponsor a Family" program is truly a community effort to provide Thanksgiving meals to local families in need. Last year, with the help of local families, groups of neighbors, school classes and business units, we were able to provide meals for over 100 families. We hope that this support will continue this year. You supply the groceries for the meal of a specific local family in need. (no cooking is required)
