The firm has donated frozen turkeys to the event, which will be prepared and shared with the guests from the community that day, along with a special presentation delivered by a chef from the area who will show how to create side dishes that complement the turkey. As long-standing supporters of the center, the firm also gave a donation of $500 to this event.

Today, Mattie Rhodes Center provides bilingual and bicultural mental health and social services tailored especially for Latinos. The organization's Latino Cultural Arts Division offers art education for all ages and a family-friendly gallery.
