BAKERSFIELD, CA. - Two local groups are looking to serve a helping handful of Thanksgiving goodness to the Bakersfield community by offering a free meal for those in need.
The Mission at Kern County wants to make sure that residents who have nowhere to go for Thanksgiving still have something to be thankful for this holiday.
Every year the Mission holds a Thanksgiving feast for their residents and the old town Kern community.
Staff and residents of the mission have been canvasing nearby neighborhoods, inviting people who have hit on hard times to join them for a traditional turkey dinner.
The Thanksgiving meal is being served Thursday from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. at the Mission at Kern County on 21st Street.
You can also join the Bakersfield Burrito Project for its 6th Annual Thanksgiving community outreach event in downtown Bakersfield Thursday morning.
Last year the group handed out breakfast burritos and set up stations to hand out clothing, shoes and hygiene kits to the local homeless and anyone else in need.
They'll be at Millcreek park at 21st and Q Streets from 10 a.m. to noon.
