"Everything here is donated. Nothing is purchased. All donations. It's from different groups: churches, businesses, single individuals, families. They are contributing to all this donating today," said Joy Junction Executive Director Relma Reynalds.
It wasn't just holiday food on the menu. Joy Junction was also giving out clothes, toys, shoes and hygiene items.
