Elevate Branson seeks delivery help for Thanksgiving
Elevate Branson is hosting a Thanksgiving Day dinner for the 14th year.
This year’s version will be a drive-through and motel delivery version of the meal because of COVID-19 concerns.
The “Love Your Neighbor” Thanksgiving dinner started in 2008 as a way to help those residing in weekly or extended stay motels, or who were homeless, in the Branson area. The event has continued through the help of donors and volunteers who produce the event.
