Franklin Family Foundation Annual Holiday Dinner

Posted on by

For this last Thanksgiving, the Franklin Family Foundation, in conjunction with the Highland Christian Center, gave away over 600 family take-home dinners to local families in need.

This weekend will be the annual Christmas Holiday Dinner and Toy Giveaway, helping families with a holiday meal and toys for the children. Every year the KNA contributes to this non-profit effort to serve Portland families.

This weekend, the Franklin Family Foundation is seeking donations of your time, money, or toys. Anything that you can contribute will help. See below for contact details:
