West Hartford, CT (PRWEB) October 13, 2015 -- BlumShapiro today announced it will partner with Christian Community Action (CCA) for the fourth consecutive year to provide Thanksgiving Day meals to more than 2,000 families and seniors in New Haven.

“For four consecutive years, we have been grateful to BlumShapiro for leading our Thanksgiving Food Basket initiative,” said Rev. Bonita Grubbs, Christian Community Action Executive Director. “We appreciate their commitment as well as that of our other community supporters who all play a vital role in this annual food drive.”
