Monique White: Monique White’s Craigslist Thanksgiving with strangers

By Therese Lisieux on November 27th, 2008



Monique White and her partner, Doug White, are sharing their Thanksgiving with 32 strangers who responded to their Craigslist ad for sharing a Thanksgiving meal. Monique White works as a receptionist at a dentist’s surgery. White advertised to get some company for Thanksgiving and 32 people are coming to her home in Denver for Thanksgiving dinner.

Monique White’s boss offered to pay for the food. A hotel supplied the tables and chairs. A magician is donating his services. Monique White and Doug White are sharing to give thanks for doing better than last year’s Thanksgiving. In 2007, they were living out of a small motel room. Monique White was searching for a job. The Whites are not rich yet but they have generously opened up their house and hearts to share.
