The children who are in the Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina’s Kids Café program will be receiving the Thanksgiving Meals, according to the Observer.

Some of the children’s family members may also get meals at the event and all the participants get to receive a second full Thanksgiving meal, according to the Cam Newton Foundation.

Newton is a huge presence in the Charlotte community, serving as the leader of a celebrity kickball tournament, a 7-on-7 youth football tournament and a healthy day of service among other events.
