AGSM, Inc. Tampa Bay / VAVS CDCE Rep FH dinner

Recently, AGSM, Inc., Tampa Bay Chapter answered the call for an important need at the Fisher House at James Haley VA Hospital, Tampa, FL. The day before Thanksgiving, the Vietnam Veterans of America, Chapter 787, delivered a festive fabulous Thanksgiving Day feast to the FH.....to be enjoyed on Thanksgiving Day. Because of a staff shortage at the FH, the VAVS CDCE volunteer on duty that day was asked to provide a meal Wednesday evening for 13 families so that they could enjoy the Thanksgiving meal the next day. Thankfully, there were lots of ingredients in the well equipped FH kitchen available to make 2 crock pots full of chili, rice, shredded cheese, rolls, and salad. With a little kitchen magic and an online "simple chili recipe"....the families were able to enjoy a hearty meal and a fully loaded Thanksgiving Day Dinner the next day.
