This year the Tesuque Holiday Food Drive will provide food for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays to 127 of our neighbors. As you can imagine, with the continued recession, the need is great. In fact, if we have additional food there are three more families on a waiting list. In short, we need your tax-deductible contributions more than ever.
The projected budget is $1,600 for Thanksgiving and $2,600 for Christmas, as the time out of school will be longer
Again all sorts of people are stepping up to make this important annual fund drive a success. Ali MacGraw, Noela Figueroa, the employees of the Tesuque Village Market along with other supporter such as Tom & Marilynn Morrish, Julie Miller, and food suppliers Just the Best, Fabo Bread, Santa Fe Tortilleria and Jim O'Hoar with Sysco, among others, are pitching in.
Please join them by making out a check to CCLA and dropping it off at the Tesuque Village Market. Michael Stein has put together a receipt form at the front desk so you can have a record of your donations for your tax return.
If you can't get to the market, you can give the checks to Jamie Morris or Ali MacGraw. We will mail you a receipt.
