Local Zonta Volunteers Feed the Homeless

Members from Peconic Bay Zonta prepared a Thanksgiving meal for approximately 30 homeless adults on eastern Long Island. Club members make a turkey dinner with all the fixings as a yearly volunteer service project. Peconic Bay Zonta is a local chapter of Zonta International, an organization that works to empower women and girls worldwide through service and advocacy.

The project was accomplished in cooperation with Maureen’s Haven, which provides support and compassionate services to homeless adults on the East End of Long Island. Peconic Bay members brought food to the Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church in Cutchogue to be served to those in need by volunteers.
