Meaningful Ways to Give Back This Thanksgiving


By Laura Leiva

Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on what we’re grateful for, but it’s also an opportunity to give back to those who may be less fortunate. Here are a few easy ways to spread kindness and positively impact this holiday season:

  • Volunteer at a local food bank or shelter: Help distribute meals or organize donations to support your community during the holiday season.

  • Organize a canned food drive in your community: Collect non-perishable items from neighbors or coworkers and donate them to a local food bank.

  • Donate gently used clothes or blankets to those in need: Warm clothes and blankets can also be given to shelters to help others stay warm during winter.

  • Host a virtual fundraiser for a cause close to your heart: Use social media to raise funds for a charity you care about through an online event.

  • Offer to cook or deliver meals for neighbors or friends who may need a helping hand: Prepare and deliver meals to neighbors facing challenges or needing support.

Giving back this Thanksgiving is a meaningful way to spread gratitude and kindness to those in need.
