Not all of our clients are in a position to be able to enjoy a nice holiday meal with their families and friends. That’s why each year, we give those most in need Holiday Baskets filled with everything they’ll need for a feast — turkey, potatoes, stuffing, yams, cranberry sauce, biscuits, produce, etc. Last year, we gave baskets to 40 families and this year, with your help, we hope to reach 60 families. By donating just $25, you can give a family a holiday to remember.

Last year, many clients had tears in their eyes when they received this gift. One told us, “Thank you so much. Now I’ll be able to do something nice for my family, who supports me so much throughout the year.” Another said, “I didn’t know what I was going to do this Christmas. Now I’ll be able to provide my kids with a delicious meal.” Case Manager Francis Bueno, who spearheads the annual Holiday Basket Drive, also gets misty-eyed when she thinks of the impact this effort makes on the families we serve. “The gratitude ripples through the organization,” she said.

If you’re in a position to help, please consider sponsoring a Holiday Basket. For just $25, you can help us spread holiday cheer to those who need it most. 100% of your donation will be spent on food for our clients. Please click here to make a donation.
