***會長報告(感恩餐會致謝)***
今年度我們商會擧辦的感恩節慈善餐會,在與Centerville Presbyterian Church 合作擧辦之下圓滿落幕。能完成此次慈善餐會要感謝許多人:首先要謝謝許多會員先進們的慷慨捐款,其次是眾多會員志工們前來幫忙準備食物袋、發送節目單、與擔任牙齒義診的行政工作。特別要感謝謝鎮寬創會會長的運籌帷幄、陳陽明/邱麗菁夫婦特受歡迎的毯子捐贈、與吳怡明/藍佳欣醫師的愛心牙齒義診專車,還有劉嘉寧流暢的主持。當然,若沒有Centerville Presbyterian Church 所屬的團隊通力合作,我們也無法獨力完成。我𧫴此再次對所有參與此次活動的先進們表達謝意,也敬祝大家有個溫馨愉快的感恩節!

Together, the Taiwanese Chamber of Commerce of S.F.B.A. and Love of Taiwan Association will sponsor their 24th Free Thanksgiving Dinner on Tuesday, Nov. 26. The event will be held at Centerville Presbyterian Church in Fremont, and is expected to serve 500 people in need. Opening remarks and singing of the national anthem will start off the gathering. Due to issues with the facility roof there won’t be a sit-down meal this year; dinner will be given out in to-go boxes, along with a blanket.
The free dinner is held in cooperation with Centerville Presbyterian Church, Centerville Free Dining Room and Immanuel Presbyterian Church. The organizers hope that in the spirit of thanksgiving and sharing, the event will bring residents of the Tri-City and Hayward together.
