González Convention Center in 2016.On Nov. 2, thousands of San Antonians rushed to access an online link that would allow them up to volunteer for the first in-person Raul Jimenez Thanksgiving Dinner since 2019.

Volunteers also will deliver another 3,500 meals to homes across San Antonio., 250 turkeys will be served, totaling 9,400 pounds of meat, plus 3,000 pies and 25,000 dinner rolls.
