In Pictures: President Obama, Wife and Daughters Serve Thanksgiving Dinner to the Homeless

America's first family, President Barack Obama, was joined by his wife, Michelle and daughters, Malia and Sasha as they took time out to serve up Thanksgiving dinner for homeless veterans at the Friendship Place homeless center in Washington DC.


 Dozens of hungry vets were served dinner as part of the 'Feast with Friends' event at the shelter, located in the basement of St Luke's Church.

Each family member took on a different task with President Obama dishing up turkey and ladles of gravy, Michelle serving vegetables and their daughters giving out mashed potatoes, stuffing and cranberry sauce.

Earlier in the day, President Obama had said: "It's not only of the spirit of giving during this holiday season, but our national obligation to make sure all those who serve and sacrifice for our country have a place to call home.

"My administration considers this one of our top priorities, making sure that we're bringing about the reality of zero homelessness for our veterans."
