FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Conejo Community Outreach Launches Flagship Event
Local charitable organization aims to feed families in need this Thanksgiving
Newbury Park, Calif. (Nov. 9, 2015) - Conejo Community Outreach (CCO), a local, charitable organization, has officially launched its first community event, “Conejo Community Thanksgiving.” The event aims to provide Thanksgiving Day food packages to local families for whom it might otherwise be a financial burden. CCO is calling upon the generosity of local Conejo Valley residents to help participate in the event, which will take place between Saturday, Nov. 21 and Wednesday, Nov. 25, by nominating families, volunteering, and/or donating non-perishable food items and monetary contributions. Nominated families that can be accommodated will be notified accordingly and will be able to pick up their food packages on Wednesday, Nov. 25.
Founding a local charitable organization has been a longtime dream of the organization’s Founder and President, Andrea Yusim. Yusim chose to spearhead the launch of the organization with a Thanksgiving Day Event for its ability to encompass the organization’s mission of bringing families and community together. Of this event, Yusim says, “We want each family to have the oven warm their own homes and the smells envelop their own houses, and have the ability sit down to a meal cooked for their own families without the anxiety of what an expense it is for a single meal.”
In order to make this event a success, CCO has reached out to local online mom groups in the Conejo Valley to call upon their social media platforms and community connections in pursuit of making the event a collaborative and community event in which everyone can contribute. CCO is confident that residents of the Conejo Valley will help make this a memorable Thanksgiving for many families in the area who otherwise not be able to afford such a meal. Pertinent information regarding how to nominate a family, how to volunteer as a food drop-off location, how to volunteer for the event and how to donate can be found on the organization’s website (http://www.conejocommunityoutreach.com).
