Falafel Taco, a local restaurant in Pleasantville, NY, has been caring for the community through Thanksgiving meals since 2020. My wife Rosie and I started this project on March 14, 2020, when the world had shut down and many people in our community were out of work. We were fortunate to have our restaurant and to be in a position to provide food for people who needed it.

Since then, Falafel Taco Cares has fed and distributed 2,500 meals with the help of partners including Neighbors Link, United Way, and Hope's Door. This year, we are continuing that work by raising funds to prepare and donate 200+ Thanksgiving meals for at-risk members of our community who need a meal on Thanksgiving Day.

This effort feels especially important this year because the cost of everything has gone up so much, and good people are struggling. No one should have to go without a meal on Thanksgiving. With support from Pleasantville Community Synagogue, which is helping us spread the word and prepare meals, every donation will go toward making these meals possible for neighbors in need.

Any contribution will help us continue this community tradition of care. If you are able to give or share this fundraiser, your support will help Falafel Taco Cares provide Thanksgiving meals to people who need them most.
