Crystal Run Healthcare employees brought joy and nourishment to families in need this Thanksgiving by donating 56 baskets full of generous arrangements that contained the complete fixings for a Thanksgiving meal. In more than 16 practice locations, employees came together to collect donations for local families. During the week leading up to Thanksgiving, baskets were distributed to patients and other families in need throughout Orange, Ulster, Sullivan, and Rockland counties. Nonperishable food items were also supplied to Guild of St. Margaret Soup Kitchen in Middletown, NY.
Crystal Run Healthcare has been participating in the Thanksgiving food drive for over seventeen years. This is one of many philanthropic efforts that the employees of Crystal Run Healthcare participate in and support each year, in order to give back to the local communities.
“Crystal Run Health employees are extremely generous and committed to the community. When there are people in need, they come together and go above and beyond to meet that need. This year we gave out 56 Thanksgiving food baskets. We were also able to make a donation of food to The Guild of St. Margaret Soup Kitchen. The baskets make a difference, they give people in need a Thanksgiving meal for their families – something they may not have had otherwise,” said Tara Kammarada, Director of Human Resources at Crystal Run Healthcare.
