Burlington shelter giving out hundreds of bikes, toys, and free meals to families

On December 21, the Piedmont Rescue Mission will hold their annual Community Christmas Meal.

BURLINGTON, N.C. — Every year, the Piedmont Rescue Mission holds a Community Christmas Meal for anyone in need of a good meal in the Triad.

They serve about 500-600 people every year at the event.

On Saturday, December 21, they're inviting the public to their meal. It starts at 11:00 a.m. at their shelter on 1519 North Mebane Street in Burlington.

Not only do they feed families, but they also give out hundreds of coats and toys! Everything is free to anyone in need.

Everything they hand out has been donated to the mission from the community.

They are running short on bikes this year in comparison to years' past. If you like to donate or if you're interested in volunteering call 336-229-6995.
