Longhorn Steakhouse in conjunction with the Healthcare Power Hour group will be gathering at two locations on Thursday December 15th 2022 from 4:00pm to 6:00pm to distribute 500 cooked holiday meals to provide a little bit of joy to those in need this holiday season.
Our Goals-
• Increase awareness of the issue of substance abuse, mental health, and suicide prevention during the holidays.
• Provide hundreds of meals throughout central Florida to people suffering from addictions, mental health challenges, isolated senior citizens, as well as veterans.
• Support those working with mental health and substance abuse patients during the holidays.
Distribution will be via car line at the below mentioned locations for those who have registered. We will also have hundreds of volunteers to transport meals to anyone who cannot pick their meals up. There will be limited spaces dedicated to vendor tables/tents to distribute meals.
