In this episode of Spotlight Houston, host Blanca Quezada interviews Maria Magee, Chief Development Officer at Interfaith Ministries for Greater Houston. This nonprofit organization has been serving the community for over 60 years.   Maria shares how Interfaith Ministries brings together people of diverse faiths and cultures to provide crucial services through programs like Meals on Wheels, which delivers more than 2 million meals each year to homebound seniors across Houston and Galveston. She also highlights the organization's Animeals program, which ensures seniors' pets are well cared for, and its long-standing Refugee Services, which helps families resettle and rebuild their lives in Houston. Throughout the episode, you'll learn how Volunteer Houston, a program of Interfaith Ministries, connects individuals with nonprofit organizations in need of support across the Greater Houston area. Maria discusses how you can get involved, from donating items to volunteering, and shares exciting details about their upcoming Tapestry Gala, themed "A Better Tomorrow Starts Today." If you want to make a difference, find out how you can contribute to these important causes or join the special Thanksgiving phone bank, where volunteers call seniors to wish them a happy holiday.
