You can be a Holiday Hero for a family in need

Dear John,

We need YOUR HELP to ensure that we have enough food to pack into every Thanksgiving bag and a full toy closet for our Gifting for Families drive in December.

With the warnings about massive shipping delays and supply chain issues expected this holiday season, I wanted to make sure you received this email so you can help us get a jump on the season ahead.

This year, many families are dealing with added financial pressures. Your support today will ensure a joy-filled holiday season for a family who is struggling.

Here are 4 ways you can help this season.

A monetary contribution
Your cash gift makes the biggest impact — a gift of $50 provides a family of four with all the fixings for a Thanksgiving meal and/or gifts for each age group.

Nonperishable food items
Your donated food items will help fill Thanksgiving baskets distributed to families in need. See suggested food items and drop-off info.

New toys for all ages
Calling all shoppers! Toys of all shapes and sizes are needed to fill our Holiday Toy Closet. See suggested toy items and when to drop-off gifts.

Gift cards in denominations of $25
Your Target, Walmart or local grocery store gift cards will give families the flexibility to purchase food for their favorite holiday dishes, warm clothes for winter weather, and gifts for children.

However you and your family celebrate the season, let’s join together and make this a festive holiday for every family in our community.

With gratitude,

P.S. Will you give today to provide a family with a festive, nourishing meal and presents this season? Click here to donate now.
