Thirty young people from Detroit and the Partnership region recently gathered together for a festive holiday meal, sitting and celebrating around a full table.  Naturally, they feasted on an assortment of delights, including stuffed chicken and warm Hanukah sufganiyot.  The table was adorned with a fancy hanukiya, which helped create a truly special holiday atmosphere.
