BLUEFIELD, WV (LOOTPRESS) — The Bluefield Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. will donate more than 500 canned goods and other items for Thanksgiving meals to the Bluefield Union Mission as part of the chapter’s annual Feed A Family For Thanksgiving community service project.
The 2026 initiative expands the chapter’s traditional Thanksgiving outreach by helping the Union Mission serve a larger number of individuals and families during a season when requests for food assistance increase. The donated items will help stock the Mission’s food pantry and support its efforts to provide meals to families experiencing food insecurity in Bluefield and surrounding communities.
This year’s project was strengthened through a partnership with Grants Supermarket, whose support helped the chapter increase the number of food items available for donation. Chapter members will also participate in hands-on service at the Union Mission as part of the project.
“This partnership allows us to extend the reach of our Thanksgiving service and help many more families in our community,” said Marsha Lawson, President of the Bluefield Alumnae Chapter. “We are grateful to Grants Supermarket for joining us in this effort and to our chapter members for continuing Delta Sigma Theta’s commitment to service.”
Dassa Giles serves as project coordinator for Feed A Family For Thanksgiving and has helped organize the chapter’s donations, community partnerships, and volunteer service activities.
The Bluefield Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. remains committed to public service initiatives that strengthen families, address community needs, and support residents throughout the Bluefield area.
