Here at ROI, we get very excited when the end of fall approaches and the winter holiday season is finally upon us. Thanksgiving especially is very close to our hearts. Traditionally, the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, the ROI team celebrates together with a company potluck that has come to be known as “ROIgiving”. There is an eclectic assortment of food, Elvis hits are played on rotation and the conversation is ALWAYS entertaining.
It is also important to us that we give back to our community and those that are in need. Last Friday “team ROI” headed to Manassas to support Northern Virginia Family Service (NVFS)/SERVE and their important Operation Turkey initiative. Through Operation Turkey, NVFS/SERVE provides Thanksgiving meals to more than 1000 families in the Prince William County area! Between volunteers and the NVFS/SERVE staff over 20,000 pounds of food was sorted and distributed with the surplus going to SERVE’s Hunger Resource Center.
It was a fun, rewarding and unforgettable day. Please visit the NVFS site to learn more about how you too can help those in need.
A big shout-out goes to Tina Ashkouri— our Operation Turkey leader!
From our family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!
