Community Relations Manager Jessica Keener Helps Carry Food
Families were greeted with applause and cheer as the doors opened at 1pm. Within a few hours, thousands of people walked away with turkeys and all the trimmings to help feed their families this Thanksgiving. The non-profit organization Cityteam hosted their annual Thanksgiving food distribution event at Avaya Stadium on Tuesday.
The Lexus of Stevens Creek Cares team joined more than 500 volunteers to help distribute food to the needy and carry bags of goods from the distribution stations to the parking lot or bus stop.

Folks started lining up at 9am, in the rain, to get their spot on line, waiting until the doors opened for distribution at 1pm. 3,000 bags of food were handed out in hopes of providing an estimated 15,000 members of the San Jose community with a delicious Thanksgiving dinner that they can enjoy in the comfort of their own home.
