Free Thanksgiving Meals 2013

For anyone who might be interested in a free Thanksgiving dinner next week, there are a few options for you to look into, which I found in this article: http://voices.yahoo.com/where-free-thanksgiving-meals-family-2180746.html

You can also try showing up to a local church to see if they are holding a Thanksgiving meal function although at some you may be required to show ID (why, I'm really not sure). Just wanted to leave this here in case it could help someone who might need it.
