3 ways you can help

We anonymously deliver all the food needed to make a Thanksgiving dinner for a family of 4.

Volunteer

Be part of the movement by inspiring donations and participation.

On the Saturday before Thanksgiving, we gather to assemble baskets filled with Thanksgiving essentials, all made possible by generous financial donations. As a volunteer your help in organizing what was purchased is invaluable.  When you arrive there will be a team helping to give clear directions. 

Once assembled, the baskets are taken to distribution and spread anonymously across the community, bringing warmth and support to families in need.

Donate to the Basket Build fund

If you’re unable to join us in person or prefer to give a monetary donation, you can contribute directly through Venmo @HTXbasket or via the 501(c)(3) organization Second Servings. Every dollar goes directly toward building baskets that provide Thanksgiving meals for local families in need.

We are also actively seeking corporate sponsors to help us expand our impact. If you have contacts or suggestions for potential sponsors, please let us know—we would love to collaborate and make a greater difference together!

Share our Social with your friends

Each year, our team grows with new volunteers joining the cause, making it a joyful and impactful experience for all. It’s a powerful reminder of the grassroots spirit of charity work—how even one random act of kindness can truly change a life. Spread the word and help us reach as many people as possible
