Pilgrim Provided Xmas Dinners For 600 Families By Ruben Burney About 5 years ago, the Pilgrim Health and Life Insurance Company started the Merry Christmas Fund to provide complete Christmas dinners for the needy. Mr. Edward Mclntyre, Public Relations Officer at the Pilgrim said that 80% of the persons served were Black but they also served some 20% of the white community. He also stated that even though they ran short of funds the Company took up the slack. According to Mr. Mclntyre, they served some 600 families. Operations started at 9:00 A.M. December 23 and went on until all the food was gone. Given out were 2,500 pounds of chicken, 80 cases of canned food, 1,200 loaves of bread, and 40 cases of baby food. Mr. Mclntyre said, “This was my Christmas, to be able to help others at this time of year, because I feel that although people need help year round, it seems to be very hurtful on anybody when people are supposed to be gay on Christ’s Birthday that people can’t even have a decent meal on Christmas.” The program was worked primarily through the principals of the schools, they selected the most needy families. These were sent letters, even those who did not have letters, and asked for food, were served. Carl Burrows, of Radio Station WTHB and Ed Mclntyre; W.S. Hornsby was general and honorary chairman. Among the volunteers were the officers of the Company, the Debutants, the Big Brothers of Lucy Laney, the Scouts of Troop and Pack 4. adver t i sj n lg pays! yd AWED ' J ANUARY 3 *'. .-© VOLCANOES AMATEUR HOUR Z JW7 THURS.
