Thanksgiving Community Food Drive

Thanksgiving Food Support for Clients in Beverly, Manchester, Essex, Hamilton, and Wenham

Share the Gift of a Thanksgiving Meal

This year, Fixins for a Feast is bringing more choice, dignity, and holiday spirit to our food pantry for Thanksgiving.

Instead of distributing pre-packed bags, we’re creating a festive Holiday Corner where clients can select the foods that best fit their celebrations.

Clients will enjoy shopping for foods that best suit their needs, along with a grocery store gift card for additions to their feast!

Thanks to our community’s generosity, 720 families received food for a Thanksgiving meal in 2025.

    Requested Items:

    Canned Gravy (10 oz)
    Cranberry Sauce (14 oz)
