DeCicco's and Depot Market Join Pelham Community Relief Team for Donated Dinners

DeCicco's and Depot Market in Pelham will cook donated food for Hurricane Sandy victims.

When the Pelham Community Relief Team put out a community call for donated Thanksgiving dishes, the response was overwhelming and positive. The group will bring cooked dinners to the Howard Beach and Broad Channel communities they've been helping for several weeks now.

Two local businesses- DeCicco's and Depot Market of Pelham- have also answered the call. They are making it even easier for members of the community to donate the cooked dishes that PCRT will take to Hurricane Sandy victims on Thanksgiving Day.

Both DeCicco's, 43 Fifth Ave, and Depot Market, 146 Fifth Ave, will use their own kitchens to prepare donated food.
