SECOND ANNUAL THANKSGIVING TO GO


  The Bharati Dance Academy and Assemblyman Luis Sepulveda held their second annual Thanksgiving To Go event in front of Assemblyman Sepulveda's office on Westchester Avenue. 

  Bharati S Kemraj (of Bharati Dance Academy) and Ibrahim Shatara (chief of staff, subbing for his boss Assemblyman Sepulveda) in front of Assemblyman Sepulveda's office, begin the 2nd annual Thanksgiving food give away to the community. Members of Community Board 9, staff members of Assemblyman Sepulveda's office, and community people prepared 100 meals for members of the community to have. Also given out was water or juice for children, and a bag of canned goods. The photos below will show more of this event.
