For decades now, the Josey High School Class of 1994 has been feeding the community for Thanksgiving.

“We want them to feel like there’s someone who can help them out in a certain way,” Garcia said. “I know those people that have come here, they’re alone, they’re walking the streets all day, so we want them to have something.”
