Dozens of volunteers helped serve a Thanksgiving feast to about 300 people at the Hope Rescue Mission in Reading on Thursday.


Guests were invited to grab a seat and enjoy some good company while volunteers took orders and delivered the food to the tables.


"I'm thankful to be here today," said Robert Turchi, an organizer. "Thanksgiving can be a difficult time for a lot of people away from family, so we're just excited to try to put a smile on people's faces and be an encouragement. Warm their bellies and their hearts today."


Berks County Commissioner Christan Leinbach was among those who volunteered their time Thursday.
