CPC Celebrates Thanksgiving with Our Community
CPC celebrated Thanksgiving with community members across our early childhood centers, older adult centers, and community centers throughout the city. Our centers distributed turkeys and hosted Thanksgiving meals, while children enjoyed fun holiday activities. CPC is grateful for the support of our partners, volunteers, and donors, who made this Thanksgiving extra special for everyone we serve.
