WINSTON-SALEM, NC ⸻ The Psi Phi Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc. is spreading a lot of holiday cheer.
A few days before Thanksgiving, the brothers of Psi Phi Chapter were privileged to provide Thanksgiving meals for 25 local families. Working in coordination with local nonprofit organizations, the families were selected with recommendations from agencies Experiment in Self-Reliance, Climbing Jacob’s Ladder and from citizens throughout the community.
The brothers also expressed gratitude to the management at Harris Teeter, 150 Grant Hill Lane, in Winston-Salem, where more than a dozen Omega members diligently shopped for items to fill the boxes. Each box contained a turkey, green beans, gravy, cranberry sauce, stuffing, mashed potatoes, rolls, pie, yams and tea or lemonade.
After the shopping was completed, the brothers met at the Omega Friendship Center on Patterson Avenue where additional members assisted with packing the boxes. Once boxes were filled, the brothers volunteered to make the deliveries to the various families throughout Forsyth County.
“All of the families were very appreciative and thanked the brothers of Psi Phi Chapter for assisting them during this Thanksgiving season,” said Brother Murray Miller, chair of the chapter’s social action committee that coordinated the effort.
The next phase of Psi Phi Chapter spreading holiday cheer will occur later this month when the brothers will deliver fruit baskets as gifts to the more than two dozen widows of the chapter. Happy holidays!
