Feed a Family This Thanksgiving
This holiday season, you can help provide meals to families in our community. We will deliver donations to our local food pantry before Thanksgiving Day.
How You Can Help
🥫 Donate Food
Using the recommended food suggestion list below, visit your local grocery store to shop for items and drop them off at any local YMCA site.
| Category | Suggested Items |
|---|---|
| Vegetables/Fruits | Canned carrots, corn, green beans, peas, fruit, and cranberry sauce |
| Mains | Canned chicken, tuna, and ham |
| Side Staples | Boxes of instant potatoes, stuffing, and bread mixes |
| Extras | Gravy mix, applesauce, cake/dessert mix, and drink items (lemonade, Kool-Aid, coffee, and tea) |
💰 Make a Monetary Donation
If time is tight, skip the grocery store. Your monetary donation ensures we can buy exactly what's needed.
👐 Spread the Word
Encourage others to get involved, especially the kids! This is a great way to introduce a lifelong spirit of giving and social responsibility. Plus, don't forget to tell your family and friends about our Food Drive and ask them to consider donating.
