LIMA, OH (WLIO) - Those who work for the City of Lima are doing their very best to ensure you and your family have food on Christmas day.
Each family will be given the option between a turkey and ham with any sides of their choosing.
This Saturday on December 21st, Lima City Councilmen Derry Glenn and Thomas Jones are teaming up with Ruler Foods in Lima to donate 60 dinners to families in need to ensure them a Merry Christmas. Each family will be given the option between a turkey and ham with any sides of their choosing. Glenn and Thomas hope that this event can turn into something they can do annually for families within the community.
"I want them to be home and to have food on the table. I got people right now that don't have food on the table that are barely making it. Some of the kids are getting ready to get out of school for school break, and we got a lot of people working on that project. Giving food to kids so that they have food for the two weeks. Food is what I want to bring, so for Christmas time, they have a nice meal there," stated Glenn.
Jones added, "it's always an honor to get out here and work with Councilman Glenn and serve the people of Lima. I'm proud of what we're doing, and I know the people out here are really appreciative on what's going on."
Glenn urges for those to lend a helping hand to families in need during the holiday season. If you want to donate any food or canned items, you can Derry Glenn at 419-905-9572.
