Senator Rev. Rubén Díaz to Distribute Thanksgiving Turkeys to Seniors

New York State Senator Reverend Rubén Díaz, Chair of the Senate Aging Committee, will distribute Thanksgiving turkeys on Friday, November 19, 2010 at two senior citizen centers in The Bronx.

At 11:30 am, Senator Reverend Díaz will join senior citizens at the Sue Ginsberg Center located at 975 Waring Avenue to distribute turkeys to every member who is present at that center.

At 12:00 noon, Senator Reverend Díaz will join senior citizens at the RAIN Boston Road Senior Center located at 2424 Boston Road to distribute turkeys to every member who is present at that center.

 “I have heard about some Thanksgiving raffles where only one or two people can win a turkey, leaving most disappointed.  Unlike those events, everyone at my event will be a winner!” stated Senator Reverend Díaz. “I thank God for all of our senior citizens and wish them all a blessed and happy thanksgiving day.”

Senator Reverend Díaz will be distributing turkeys (or vouchers for turkeys) at eighteen more senior citizen centers in his district before Thanksgiving Day.

 The press is welcome at senior centers for the distribution of turkeys.
