2023 Thanksgiving Pack-A-Thon

We are proud to once again join with our community faith partners, The Jewish Center, West End Church, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, to celebrate Thanksgiving in the true spirit of the day – by giving to others.

We will be holding this year’s Pack-A-Thon in our tented outdoor pavilion, Paved Paradise. With the help of Masbia, we will pack over a thousand nutritious food packages for those in need, and Masbia is partnering with DoorDash to distribute them, free of charge, right to the doors of those who need them.

Help us feed thousands of struggling families!

Again this year, all contributions (up to $10,000) will be matched. Help us reach this year’s goal of $25,ooo!

Even very young children can support this project. At our supervised craft table, kids will create cards that will be included in the the packages, to add a colorful and personal touch.

Please register here and give as generously as your circumstances permit.
