Serving Thanksgiving Dinner

Rep. Themis Klarides is with family in Florida, but she isn’t letting that stop her tradition of helping those in need. Klarides will join former NFL players Zach and Henri Crockett on Thanksgiving Day in providing holiday dinners to more than 100 homeless people. Former Raiders running back Zach and brother Henri, a former Vikings linebacker, both graduated from Florida State University and founded the Crockett Foundation several years ago to assist students with educational mentoring and academic scholarships. The Crockett brothers have since expanded the organization’s focus to include improving the health and wellness of people in their area. Klarides and the Crocketts expect to be volunteering with several other NFLers on Thanksgiving Day, and she looks forward to helping people who are less fortunate and unable to join their families at the dinner table on this special day.
