“The Schmidt Foundation is pleased to partner with the United Way to help families in our community celebrate the spirit of Christmas. It is always so exciting to see how our community comes together to help each other,” said Gary Shorman, chairman of the Schmidt Foundation.
The Press, 230 E. Eighth, and Thirsty’s, 2704 Vine, will be providing the meals and pick up will be from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Dec. 23.
The meals will be served cold in reheatable containers.
