More than 100 volunteers distributed 1,000 meals to homeless and homebound people in Detroit on Thursday through Hartford Memorial Baptist Church in Detroit.

The fifth-annual meal distribution also included passing out bottled water, hand sanitizer and personal hygiene kits, according to church spokeswoman Laydell Harper.

The menu was turkey, dressing, green beans and cake.

“The reason we go find the hungry is because what we discovered is that a lot of the folks can’t get to the shelters and various places that are serving,” Harper explained. “That’s our way of giving back to the community and we do that in all different ways.”
