Make a Thanksgiving Meal Basket
For many families, Thanksgiving is a time to gather around the table, share a meal and create meaningful memories. But for families facing financial hardship, providing a traditional holiday meal can be a challenge.
Through Children’s Home Society of Florida’s Thanksgiving Meal Basket Drive, you can help ensure children and families in our programs experience the warmth, comfort and connection that make the holiday season special. Your donation helps families celebrate together with dignity and provides one less worry during an already stressful time of year.

Create a Thanksgiving meal basket by donating:
- Grocery gift cards
- Festive baskets or boxes
- Holiday plates, napkins and utensils
- Non-perishable holiday meal items, such as:
