YW partners with Exelon to provide Thanksgiving dinners

Pottstown-area families receive turkeys and trimmings

Two hundred Pottstown-area families will have a full Thanksgiving meal this year, thanks to YWCA Tri-County Area and Exelon’s Limerick Generating Station.

Exelon donated funds to purchase a Thanksgiving meal for families whose children attend YW’s Early Education Center. Exelon employees volunteered to deliver the food on Friday, November 16. Each family receives a turkey, fresh green beans and potatoes, canned corn and cranberry sauce, a box of stuffing mix, and a pie.

Exelon also contributed to Operation Warm, which provides warm winter coats to the 160 children enrolled in pre-school and after-school programs at the Pottstown Early Education Center.
