In this K on the Street, Kristen visits one of many local locations offering a free meal this Thanksgiving week. On Monday the Sisters of St. Joseph Neighborhood Network hosted the 2nd annual Joe Salvia Thanksgiving Community Dinner. The meal was prepared by Joe's son, Matt Salvia Sr. and his family who've been volunteering at the SSJ Neighborhood Network soup kitchen for the past decade.
Dozens of community members came together to enjoy the meal, as many do each Monday.
Another holiday-themed event will be taking place December 22nd, with door opening at 4pm.
The Christmas Community meal will honor another long-time volunteer who also cooked alongside Joe Salvia, Ron DiVecchio. That event will once again include a holiday feast as well as household items and gifts for children and adults alike. All are welcome.

Retracing the past can spark the fire you need to move forward. "Smoke Signals" reminds us that healing, humor, and heartbreak often travel the same road.

Who Decides What’s Trending? | The Algorithm vs. Community

Pop culture used to last. Trends stuck around. We talked about the same shows, the same songs, the same moments. But today? Everything feels over before it even begins.
