Thanksgiving is a time to gather, give thanks, and share abundance—but for many families in our community, putting a festive meal on the table is a struggle.
At GFWC-WI Women’s Club Princeton, we’re launching our annual Thanksgiving Basket Drive to ensure that every family we serve can enjoy a warm, nourishing holiday meal. Each basket will include boxed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, corn, green beans, yams, cream of mushroom soup, French-fried onions, cranberry sauce, jello, fruit cocktail, mini-marshmallows, and brownie mix. We also provide a $25 Piggly Wiggly gift card to purchase a turkey, ham, or any other necessary ingredients for the family’s Thanksgiving dinner — everything needed to celebrate with dignity and joy.
We need your help.
Your donation will support the purchase and distribution of these baskets. Whether you contribute food items or make a financial gift, you’ll be helping neighbors in need feel seen, supported, and cared for.
