What Goes In The Box?

Our intent is for our clients to feel part of your holiday table and that they are having a shared experience with you. To that end, we strongly encourage you to make the decorative items you choose to include fun, festive and personal. Please include the following items in your box:

      • 1 Thanksgiving centerpiece (required)
      • Additional Thanksgiving decorative items (optional)​​​​​​​
      • 4 festive placemats (required; please only include placemats, dining utensils, plates, etc. are not necessary). These can be very simple and handmade. A great opportunity with kids to color!
      • We will include 8  "encouragement  cards" in your box for you to fill out and return to be placed on the table for our clients to find at the meal. Please feel free to fill these cards with notes of encouragement, prayers, special Bible verses, etc.!​​​​​​​
      • We will also include blank recipe cards for you to fill out and return with your favorite holiday recipes. The recipes submitted will be complied into a cookbook that will be given to our clients moving into new housing.

Important Note
For health and safety reasons, we will not be able to return any of the items you donate in your box. Please keep this in mind as you assemble the contents of your box.
