Thanksgiving Basket Program 2012

Once again, we are preparing for our annual holiday program.  We project that we will need to distribute approximately 1,400 complete dinners this year, with the first of the baskets being distributed NOVEMBER 1.  UPDATE: Thanks to a very generous corporate donation, we have nearly reached our goal for the number of items needed to meet the requests for Thanksgiving baskets. However, we still need those birds, and with a record number of new families needing assistance, we have a great need for the foods listed below. Please consider these items as you shop.

FINANCIAL contributions are always welcome so we can purchase our most needed items at reduced cost.   Click HERE donate now!

Any help you can give – food or $$$ – will be greatly appreciated.

We will begin accepting turkeys and hams on October 29.
