Thanksgiving Basket Drive

Join Us for the 2025 Thanksgiving Basket Drive

This year marks our 20th annual celebration of community, care, and gratitude at the Thanksgiving Basket Drive. We are proud to carry forward a tradition of gathering neighbors, supporters, and volunteers to ensure every family in Reynoldstown can enjoy a meaningful Thanksgiving meal.

What It Is

The Thanksgiving Basket Drive is more than just distributing groceries — it’s about connection, giving, and belonging.

Each participating family receives a full meal basket containing a turkey and traditional Thanksgiving-sides, ensuring they can sit down to a generous holiday meal.

The event takes place at Lang‑Carson Park (Saturday, November 22 2025).

It’s a communal day: volunteers come together to assemble the meal-baskets, deliver them to families, and uplift our neighborhood by working side by side.

In 2024, we supported over 100 families thanks to more than 40 volunteers, local businesses, and our dedicated Thanksgiving Baskets Committee.

How to Volunteer

We welcome individuals, families, groups, and local businesses to join in. Here’s how you can participate:

• Sign up to volunteer. Register to help with basket assembly, delivery, and event logistics.

• Donate if you can’t be there in person. A contribution of $70 covers a full Thanksgiving meal for one family — you’ll help make it possible.

• Spread the word. Encourage neighbors who may need help to apply. If you know a Reynoldstown family who could use a meal, contact Julie Tomas, julie.thomas02@sap.com.

This event is not only a lot of fun, but it's also a fantastic opportunity to meet your neighbors, strengthen community connections, and support fellow Reynoldstown families during the holiday season!
