“From my family to yours, I want to wish everyone a very happy Thanksgiving. This truly is a time of year to look around and count your blessings. While you are surrounded by loved ones, watching football, enjoying dinner and engaging in time-honored traditions with family and friends, I implore everyone to think about those less fortunate. Consider giving back to your communities by volunteering at a food pantry, or donating time, energy and resources to New York’s many charities. I promise it will be a rewarding experience that could make all the difference in the Thanksgiving holiday for those who may be struggling.”
