Our 2nd Annual Thanksgiving Feast Gathering & Distribution is complete. We are thrilled to have been able to provide full-sized turkeys, potatoes, green beans, stuffing, rolls, gravy, cranberry, pumpkin pie, mini cupcakes, roasting pans and more to 25 families facing food insecurity in Hays County – enough for over 100 meals!
Like last year, we wanted to play a part in ensuring that families in our area facing challenging times didn’t feel the strain of providing Thanksgiving dinner for their families. And, we didn’t want to provide premade meals, because so much of what Thanksgiving is about is spending time and making memories with loved ones while preparing the turkey and staple side dishes that make up the traditional feast. That’s why these families received some items they would need to prepare like the turkey, dressing, gravy and potatoes.
This year a huge thanks goes to H-E-B (Kyle) for helping us pull together all the items & to Hays Hope To Go for connecting us to the Hays CISD student families in need.
We spent some time volunteering at HaysHope2Go this year organizing clothing donations and packing weekend bundles of food for student families and donating items on their “Most-Needed Items” list which they update regularly. So, we knew they would have a direct line to the families in the most need of this special meal during the holiday season. They made all the distribution arrangements and we loaded the cars.
HaysHope2Go is a project to alleviate hunger among our students who are most in need, as well as clothing and school supplies needs through their Hays CISD Clothes Closet. Food insecurity is a major barrier to having students focus on their work in class on their way to reaching their full academic potential. And, of course, being outfitted with good quality, seasonal appropriate clothing is essential to a child’s confidence and well-being. Families are even able to schedule time to go and pick out clothing for their families which is all arranges, organized and displayed nicely and with dignity.
With the community’s support and generosity, volunteers, and amazing community partners, they take on poverty and hunger for the benefit of the children in the Hays CISD district. They are located right on campus, so it’s easy access for student families and they work directly with the school counselors who discreetly notify them when they’ve discovered that a child may have food and clothing needs or other assistance. This year they have helped around 9,000 people and provided almost 122,000 meals. They are located right on campus, so it’s easy access for student families.
We look forward to our continued work with this wonderful and vital organization.
