Hawaii families can start ordering holiday meals from nonprofit Lanakila Pacific this Thursday, with the money going to a good cause.

• Thanksgiving turkey packages start at $260, and Christmas prime rib dinners run $280.
• Each dinner feeds 8 to 10 people.
• Proceeds pay for meals and job training for seniors and people with disabilities.
• Ordering opens Thursday, well ahead of the holidays.

Outlook: Orders are expected to fill up as Thanksgiving approaches, so early buyers have the best shot.
