As the holidays draw near we should be thankful for the many good things in our lives…a warm place to sleep, food on our tables, the ability to provide for our families and friends that enrich our days. It is sad to think that many people in our country are not as fortunate.
Thanksgiving can be a time of extreme grief and disappointment for the less fortunate families of our country who do not have a Thanksgiving meal to eat.
Would you like to help make a difference in the lives of these families who will not have a Thanksgiving dinner to eat?
Join A Day of Hope, a nonprofit program that delivers baskets of food and turkeys to families in need. A Day of Hope was founded in 2005 with a simple mission to give hope and encouragement to needy families through a basket of food for Thanksgiving.
Here are two ways you can make a difference in the lives of families this Thanksgiving:
- Make a donation via Paypal or check. Every donation of $20 will allow a family to have a glorious Thanksgiving meal that they would not have otherwise had. Details on making a donation can be found here.
- Join A Day of Hope’s Facebook Cause Challenge. From November 7th – 27th the person who recruits the most members to the A Day of Hope cause on Facebook will receive a $20 gift card to Pizza Hut or Fuddruckers.
- Make a lens for A Day of Hope on Squidoo. Whether you’re an experienced lensmaster or a newbie, you can become involved and raise money for A Day of Hope by visiting this Squidoo lens.
