It's Food For Thought's biggest year yet, and we need your help to make Giving Tuesday a success! The goal? Find sponsors for 200 of the 600 families that FFT feeds every Christmas. It only cost $30 to sponsor a family. Sign up now and make a difference this year for a family in your community! 🍊

Today is Giving Tuesday and we're launching our Stock The Stocking campaign! From November 27th to December 17th were asking our community to help fight child hunger by filling a stocking with easy to open items. The stockings go directly towards feeding children in our community and we could use your help! During the Christmas break food insecure kids will miss 20+ meals. You can help bridge that gap by stopping by one of the designated locations to pick up and drop off the stockings.

A big thank you to our Thanksgiving sponsor Apex Disaster Specialists, to Grocery Outlet and Walmart for help with our holiday food orders, to Rent Gear Here for help with transportation, and to the dedicated volunteer teams from Howard Hospitality, Hilary and Reverie, Alys Beach and Escapology. We appreciate you all!
