Every year, the excitement of the Tuesday before Thanksgiving is unlike every other day of the year. It’s the one day that no one gets upset by standing in the long line to enter Ron’s Café for the annual Thanksgiving Luncheon.

Meals are served by board members, executive staff, and volunteers. Over the last several years, even the Drexel University Basketball coaches have stepped up to serve with big smiles and kind words.

We, like many others, remember with kindness and care the many men and women which we are honored to serve.

We extend a “Big Thank You” to David Kauffman for connecting Horizon House with his friends at the Haverford YMCA. We were able to receive an incredible donation of 150 new winter coats for our families with children who need them the most. We are always grateful for our community of friends and supporters with hearts for giving!

Larry and Darlene Guess celebrated 21 blissful years of marriage, with an amazing reception planned and executed by staff that has supported them since before they were married. The couple shares an apartment in Roxborough, where they live independently. They love being married and spending time together. They have developed a wide social network in the community through work, social activities, and church.

 Attending the celebration were staff and friends who witnessed their nuptials 21 years ago including the best man, photographer, and peers!  

All Darlene could say was, “I’m soooo happy.”
