It’s the season of giving.

On Sunday local fraternities came together in a special way to give away more than 100 Thanksgiving baskets to families in need at the American Legion.

“Today (Sunday) we’re giving away thanksgiving baskets,” said Fred Jackson with Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Incorporated. “There’s a lot of need here in Springfield and this goes to help out a number of families that are really in need.”
