For more than 20 years, volunteers from Butler area churches and the community at large have come together to prepare over 1,000 Thanksgiving meals to give away for free to anyone who asks.
Turkey * Mashed Potatoes And Gravy * Green Beans * Stuffing * Cranberry Sauce * Roll * Dessert
Deliveries will be made on Thanksgiving Day.
Takeout meals (you had to order in advance) may be picked up from 11 a.m. to noon on Thanksgiving Day at
St. Peter Catholic Church Hall (All Saints Parish) * 127 Franklin St. * Butler * 16001
Walk-ins: Enter through front gate on Franklin Street and follow signs.
Drive-ups: Enter St. Peter parking lot from Franklin Street and follow signs.
As organizers make plans for this year’s Thanksgiving Community Dinner, they are emphasizing the need for volunteers to get their clearances in order as soon as possible.
Although the dinners are cooked and distributed from two All Saints Parish campuses – St. Peter and St. Michael – the Thanksgiving Community Dinner is an event with participation by volunteers from the community at large as well as from churches of different denominations in the Butler City area and beyond.
Volunteers from the community at large will need to get clearances through the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
All parishes in the Diocese of Pittsburgh – including All Saints Parish – require volunteers to have Safe Environment clearances.
If you have your clearances already – from your workplace or another organization (such as your church or school) – please send them to Sue Cadwallader, All Saints Parish - St. Peter Church, 127 Franklin St., Butler, PA 16001.
If you do NOT have your clearances, please contact Sue at 724-427-4153 or [email protected] and she will walk you through the process.
Thank you for your donations of boxed stuffing, canned jellied cranberry sauce, canned green beans, and frozen turkeys. We are no longer accepting donations.
Monetary donations and gift cards to grocery stores are greatly appreciated.
They may be mailed or dropped off at:
All Saints Parish, 128 N. McKean St., Butler, PA 16001.
Please make checks out to All Saints Parish and put them in an envelope marked “Thanksgiving Community Meal”.
