Buffalo, New York – November 12, 2009 – Following the advice of his mentor nine years ago, Outer Limit Recording Studio owner Ken Rutkowski began a tradition of providing a Thanksgiving feast to a local family in need.

Beginning as a small, simple act of kindness toward one family, the program has doubled the number of families provided for every year since its inception in 2002. This year, Ken, through St. Adalbert's Response To Love Center in Buffalo, will provide Thanksgiving dinner to 256 families within the local community. These meals have consisted of a huge turkey, stuffing, potatoes, yams, cranberry sauce, corn, mixed vegetables, dinner rolls, butter, pies, whipped topping, juice, milk, coffee, tea… everything needed for a bountiful Thanksgiving meal. He now calls this the “ThanksgivingGiving.”

Close friends and family, along with studio clients and a handful of corporate sponsors like Tops Markets, Rich Products, and Dunkin Donuts, continue to make the “ThanksgivingGIVING” a success year after year. “The community has been really receptive to the program in terms of donating and helping out,” Ken says. “It's extremely rewarding to know that 256 families in true need this season will be able to enjoy a full Thanksgiving meal, thanks to The Response To Love Center and everyone who has been generous to help out with food, money, or time.”

For almost twenty years, Outer Limit Recording Studio has been the preferred choice for musicians throughout Western New York, Pennsylvania, and Southern Ontario. Having worked with Grammy Award winning artist Eminem D-12, Raheem DeVaughn, as well as an impressive roster of other national and local artists, Ken is one of the most sought-after engineers and producers in the region.

The purpose of this annual Thanksgiving GIVING is all about the POWER of giving, especially when you don’t have much to give. It has become a moving experience for so many people who depend on it now for nourishment, holiday spirit, and faith in the kindness of others, ability to not have to turn anyone away and most of all for those who seek a sense of goodwill. You get when you give… and Ken hopes to have that this become contagious for all of us in Buffalo, NY .
For more information about the “Thanksgiving GIVING” or to make a donation, please contact Ken at (716) 886-0554.
