Stanley’s Service and the Knoxville Optimist Club are holding a Thanksgiving Food Drive and Christmas Toy Drive.

The drives present an opportunity for community members to support local families during the holiday season. The events help ensure that families in need have a warm meal for Thanksgiving and toys for Christmas. Drop off dates for Thanksgiving food run through November 26th and until December 23rd for the toy drive.  Items can be dropped off from 8:00 am – 5:00 pm Monday-Friday, or 8:00 am – Noon on Saturdays. A list of food and gift recommendations can be found below.
