Families Forward

Thanksgiving Program Volunteers

Volunteer Sign-Ups for Thanksgiving 2023 will begin on Monday, October 2nd. Thank you for your interest and we look forward to your participation!

Each year, Families Forward holds a Thanksgiving-themed grocery distribution for local families in need. The weekend before Thanksgiving, families come to our program center to receive all of the traditional Thanksgiving fixings to cook a warm, delicious holiday meal.

We offer a range of volunteer opportunities to suit your schedule, from sorting food to preparing meal baskets and distributing them to families in need. Whether you can spare a few hours during the week or a Saturday before Thanksgiving, your involvement can help bring hope and sustenance to those who need it most. Together, we can create a meaningful impact this holiday season.

In 2022, we served 977 families for Thanksgiving. That’s 4,006 individuals!
