Children's Restoration Network is collecting food donations this week at its Elkins Road location in Roswell to build Thanksgiving meals for children living in group homes and shelters.
The nonprofit's Thanksgiving Food Box Drive runs Thursday, Nov. 12, through Saturday, Nov. 14, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day, according to a CRN Facebook post.
CRN asked supporters to gather friends, family, neighbors, co-workers and church or civic groups to collect food items and assemble food boxes for the drive. The organization has served homeless children since 1993, according to its website.
The group's Thanksgiving Food Drive page describes the effort as a way to "provide as many kids as we can with a great meal," noting that many of the children the organization serves have endured trauma.
CRN collects food each year to provide children in group homes and shelters with a holiday meal, the nonprofit said in a Nov. 10 post on X. The drop-off location is on Elkins Road in Roswell. Residents looking for more details can visit www.ChildRN.org.
The three-day donation window closes Saturday, Nov. 14, at 3 p.m.
