Thanksgiving
Blessing Boxes
Have you ever felt the urge to give back to others? To do some good in the world? Well here's your opportunity! Every year on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, hundreds of volunteers come together to bless local families with everything they need for a full Thanksgiving meal. Churches, businesses and individuals all work side-by-side to bless the less fortunate for the holidays. This November we will pack and hand deliver over 350 Thanksgiving Boxes. We need the support of people like you to keep the blessing going!

The first Thanksgiving Blessing Box!
Where We Started
This event is so cool when you know the history of where it started. When we did the first Thanksgiving Blessing Boxes, we never knew how big it would become. It started in 2009 with 10 boxes that we packed in our living room. The next year we had grown to around 25 boxes. Over the next 15 years we have grown to over 300 boxes each Thanksgiving, feeding over 1500 people! We had to move from our house, to our warehouse, and eventually to the rec. center to accommodate all of the volunteers and boxes! This event is a testament to the fact that God will bless good things done in his name.
