For nearly 25 Christmas Day mornings, a free hot meal has been provided to some of Tullahoma’s less fortunate residents. We hope the tradition can continue this Christmas morning.
“We so appreciate the volunteers who make this community event happen each year, “said Evelyn and Lane Curlee, volunteer coordinators.
Typically, approximately 500 meals are delivered to disabled veterans, low-income families, home-bound, chronically ill, unemployed, or folks who are just lonely on Christmas Day.
Morrison Health Care at Vanderbilt-Tullahoma Medical Center provides meals at the actual cost of the food. The meal consists of a generous portion of ham, vegetables, and bread.
“Unfortunately, food costs are up considerably this year. If you are able to help defray the cost of the 500 meals, please mail a check to Hot Meals, P.O. Box 84, Tullahoma, TN 37388.
Please mail your check no later than Friday, December 13, to help us determine how many meals can be provided this year.
“This is an opportunity to lift the spirits of individuals who could use a little encouragement and a hot meal on Christmas morning. What a wonderful way to make Christmas a little brighter for some of Tullahoma’s less fortunate folks,” said the Curlees.
