Some Bibb County Seniors get an early Thanksgiving dinner all thanks to a local volunteers group.
The Mentor's Project held it's annual Thanksgiving Feast at the Senior Citizens Center in Macon on Tuesday.
Bibb County middle and high school students volunteered to provide the seniors with a delicious traditional Thanksgiving meal.
This is the thirteenth year the group has provided a special dinner at the senior center.
Mentor's Project, executive director, June O'Neal, said it's a learning experience for the teenagers.
"We want the children to realize that it's not all about them," said O'Neal. "It's about everybody and giving to others."
Georgia Community Food Bank, Macon Rescue Mission and Kroger stores donated food for the Thanksgiving feast.
