THANKSGIVING PROJECT 2024
Thanksgiving Project
It’s hard to believe, but Thanksgiving is just around the corner. We are excited to be in the midst of planning for our Annual Thanksgiving Project event for 2024! This means thousands of families across Luzerne and Wyoming Counties will have the opportunity to receive a turkey, all the holiday dinner sides, and dessert in one location this year.
With the rising cost of food and basic needs, we know that families with children and our elderly neighbors will not be able to enjoy a holiday meal without our community’s help. With such an immense need ahead of us this year, the CEO/Weinberg Food Bank needs you!
Donate online or by mail, send your donation to CEO Thanksgiving, PO Box 1127 Wilkes Barre, PA 18703-1127
Show Your Gratitude This Holiday Season by Giving Back
As you prepare to share another Thanksgiving meal with your loved ones, please also consider those who aren’t guaranteed the same blessings you and I can so easily take for granted this holiday.
This year, rising costs and high inflation have put people’s basic needs even further out of reach.
Every day, nearly 71,570 of our neighbors in Northeast Pennsylvania are at risk of missing a meal and 22,310 of them are children.
But you can help change that this Holiday season. With the support of compassionate people just like you, the Weinberg Northeast Regional Food Bank provides 42,881 people meals each month by distributing more than 12 million pounds of food to over 300 nonprofit community partners. These partners are much-needed lifelines - providing groceries to thousands of individuals and families experiencing hunger.
You can help by sending your Thanksgiving gift today.
Every dollar counts to provide urgently needed meals.
