The 2008 NFCC Holiday Program

Thanksgiving Donations

For Thanksgiving donations, we need non-perishable food items for a Thanksgiving meal and grocery store gift cards in $25 increments.

 

Last year we provided the makings for a Thanksgiving meal to over 500 families!

 

Below is a grocery store list of suggested items. Consider getting an item in each category for a family of four or buying several items in one category:

 

Canned Vegetables (Green Beans, Refried Beans, Black Beans, Corn, Sweet Potatoes, White Potatoes, Squash, Greens, etc.)

 

Boxed Potatoes and Rice (Mashed, Scalloped, White - Brown - Yellow Rice, Boxes or Bags)

 

Boxed Pasta Mixes (Macaroni, Mac-n-Cheese)

 

Boxed or Bagged Stuffing Mixes (Cornbread, Herb, Plain, Bags/Boxes)

 

Bags of Flour, Cornmeal, Biscuit mixes (Wheat, All-Purpose, White)

 

Boxes of Baking Goods (Cake Mixes, Brownies, Pie makings)

 

Cans of Gravy (Turkey, Chicken)

 

Cans of Fruit (Apple, Cranberry, Cranberry Sauce, Pineapple, Applesauce, etc.)
