Annually, we pack and distribute at least 850 holiday food boxes to ensure that the families in our community have a joyful and bountiful Thanksgiving. Guided by our community members, the boxes contain staple ingredients used to prepare Thanksgiving dinner, such as beans, rice, pasta, gravy, and more. Families will also be provided with a small box of fresh produce, and a grocery store gift card to help offset the cost of other perishable items needed for dinner.
