Open Arms provides Thanksgiving meals at home

Open Arms of Minnesota tries to make sure that many people with life-threatening illnesses have a Thanksgiving meal.

Launched in the 1986 to help Minnesotans diagnosed with HIV and AIDS, the group now delivers free meals, tailored to address specific illnesses, throughout the year to people with HIV, ALS, MS, and cancer.

Open Arms will deliver 600 Thanksgiving meals this year. While they'll provide traditional foods, they'll make sure that food is relatively healthy. | Read the story
