People from all walks of life broke bread together, swapped stories and gave thanks yesterday at free Thanksgiving Day dinner events across Hudson County. Those who received the meals were not the only ones uplifted by the events--volunteers felt great, too. "I think it's great to help out, especially with your family, to raise your children to know that they should give back to the community," said Sultana Zaman, 24, a volunteer at Friendship Baptist Church in Bayonne.
