Thanksgiving Dinner Distribution From The Salvation Army Reading Citadel
The Salvation Army Reading Citadel hands out Thanksgiving dinners to families each year at its Thanksgiving Distribution, held on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. In 2022, the Reading Citadel provided over 970 families with Thanksgiving Dinner.
The page gives few details beyond that. It does not say who qualifies, whether you must sign up ahead of time or bring any documents, what time the distribution starts, or what it costs, so ask when you call.
The Salvation Army Reading Citadel is at 301 South 5th Street, READING, Pennsylvania 19602. The number listed is 1-800-SAL-ARMY.
This is a once-a-year distribution tied to the Thanksgiving holiday, so it is worth calling well before Thanksgiving week to find out how to be included. The same holiday pages also describe an Angel Tree program with Christmas gifts for children up to 12 years of age, which families sign up for during the month of October through an in-person interview with trained volunteers.
