This activity not only helps those in need but also allows volunteers to experience the joy of giving and strengthens community cohesion. This activity also reflects another side of American Thanksgiving: gratitude and sharing.
Volunteers participating in soup kitchen volunteer activities come from all age groups and social classes. There are students, retirees, and company employees.
