Naperville Junior Woman’s Club Seeks Community Support for Annual Martin Avenue Thanksgiving Dinner

Naperville, IL — November 5, 2025 —The Naperville Junior Woman’s Club (NJWC) is proud to continue a beloved community tradition — the Annual Thanksgiving Dinner for residents of the Martin Avenue Apartments — and is seeking donations to help make this special event possible.

For over 40 years, NJWC members have gathered each November to serve a warm Thanksgiving meal to the residents of Martin Avenue Apartments, a local senior and low-income housing community. This long-standing tradition brings together food, friendship, and gratitude, reminding residents that they are valued and cared for during the holiday season.

“This dinner has been part of our club’s heart for generations,” said Tracy Kleinberg, NJWC President. “It’s a wonderful way to share the spirit of Thanksgiving and give back to members of our community who mean so much to us.”

NJWC is asking for community support to help fund the Thanksgiving Dinner and to support other annual outreach events through the club’s Adopt a Senior Program. Donations help cover the cost of meals, gifts, and meaningful touches that bring comfort and joy to local seniors throughout the year.

Those wishing to contribute can make a monetary donation online at this link.

The Naperville Junior Woman's Club extends heartfelt thanks to the community for years of generosity and support, which have allowed this cherished tradition — and so many others — to continue making a difference in the lives of Naperville’s seniors.
