Total Votes: 49
Since we have determined that a small thanksgiving meal can be had for about $12. Did you donate a meal to your local food pantry?
Actually, I helped organize a food drive with the church kids group again and we fed 27 families. I bought $100 worth of food myself!
It was really cute because one of the 5th grade boys walked up to his grandma and told her to write a check for $500 so the poor people could have thansgiving. So generous with her money LOL.


Good point! No we didn't donate. If we didn't go to other family members houses we would be getting a food basket from a charity.
We haven't yet, but our family is doing a mini food drive (well there are 100 people or so) at our family Christmas party the following Saturday.
Yes actually this year I donated my free turkey coupon to church because the ham I was eligible for I didn't want.
Our church does food baskets for the needy in our our parish, that i always help with.
Also weekly I do 5 meal donations, all I do is put a serving of that nights dinner into a tray the church supplies and freeze it. At the end of the week I take my 5 frozen labled meals into the church and they are used for the parish meals on wheels program.
I use to be a driver but time restraints limits me to a food preparer.
This I pretty much do year round
I will be getting a holiday food box this yr!. Thanks to everyone here who donates for those in need, its GREATLY appreciated! You all are angels!
