“We want to put a smile on their faces,” he said Sunday.
“This is very important because it’s Christmastime, and those families who have a financial crisis and don’t have food, how to celebrate? So please don’t forget our loved ones. This is time to help out. Who doesn’t have food? Please provide the food so they can celebrate Christmas.”
Hassan said the association gave away about 180 hampers over the weekend.
Hampers included granola bars, beans, juice, pasta, pasta sauce, peas, tomato sauce, peanut butter, corn and biscuits.
