More than 20,000 Free Thanksgiving Meals -- A St. Augustine Church Tradition

Thanksgiving is a time for family, fellowship and food.  

For the 46th year, the St. Augustine Hunger Center in Cleveland's Tremont neighborhood is preparing turkey and all the trimmings for those who need a hot meal -- or just a friend to talk to on this holiday. 

Father Joseph McNulty, the pastor at St. Augustine's, said his parish expects to feed 20,000 people on Thursday.

To arrange for a free meal on Thanksgiving, or a ride to receive a free meal, you can call the hunger center at 216-781-5530.
