Feed Our Federal Heroes:

Give a Complete Thanksgiving Meal

Many federal workers in our community have been impacted by the recent Government Shutdown, leaving families uncertain about how they’ll celebrate the holidays. Join us in giving back to federal employees and their families who dedicate their lives to service and could use some extra support this Thanksgiving.

Together, we aim to provide 100 complete meal bags—each including a $25 grocery gift card—to share gratitude and joy this season.
