Thanksgiving is just around the corner. What does it look like for you? Does your family gather around the table, sharing their lives, their ups and downs, their joys, their happiness and even their sorrows? Do you give thanks for the table filled with cherished family recipes, laughter and love?
At Harry Chapin Food Bank we believe that food is love. And we give thanks to all who share that belief; folks like you and families like yours who celebrate AND give back by supporting the quarter of a million people EACH MONTH that receive nutritious food through our food distribution programs, including people like Dawn.
For the last 50 years, Dawn’s family spent Thanksgiving together, 40+ of them, sharing fellowship, love, and food. This year, that tradition is over. Dawn, and many people like her, have experienced rising rents, high grocery prices, and increased medical expenses that leave them unable to pay for travel expenses to be together. Instead of gathering with dear friends and family over a special Thanksgiving meal, many families in Southwest Florida like Dawn’s worry about putting ANY food on their tables.
Will you help us give an extra helping of love to people like Dawn and her family this Thanksgiving? Will you make sure our neighbors in Southwest Florida have the healthy food they need? Every $100 you donate provides up to 200 healthy meals. Your support will ensure that families like Dawn’s can gather around tables full of love AND food.
Thank you for sharing our belief that food is love and for helping fight hunger.
