Every Dollar Counts: How You Can Help HTX Basket Brigade Reach $15,000 for Houston Families

At HTX Basket Brigade, we believe in the power of community to make a difference—one dollar at a time. This Thanksgiving, we’ve set a $15,000 fundraising goal to provide Thanksgiving meals for 500 families across Houston. Each dollar we raise brings us closer to delivering a warm, nourishing Thanksgiving meal to families who might otherwise go without. Here’s how every dollar counts toward our mission.

The Power of $1: Small Donations, Big Impact

It’s easy to think that a single dollar doesn’t make much of a difference, but when combined with hundreds of others, it can be transformative. Every dollar donated to HTX Basket Brigade goes directly toward covering the essentials—turkey, stuffing, vegetables, and more. Even small contributions add up quickly, turning into baskets filled with Thanksgiving necessities and offering a message of hope and support to the families who receive them.

“A single dollar may seem small, but when multiplied by hundreds of donors, it becomes something powerful. Every dollar helps us bring the joy and comfort of Thanksgiving to a family in need.”

$15,000 Goal: What It Covers and Why It Matters

With each basket costing around $40, reaching $15,000 means we can ensure every one of our 500 Thanksgiving baskets is fully stocked with everything a family needs to enjoy a festive meal. Here’s how each portion of that amount helps make Thanksgiving special:

• Food Staples: Each basket includes essential holiday items—turkey, stuffing, potatoes, vegetables, and gravy—so families can celebrate with a full meal.
• Special Treats: We add items like pies and holiday treats to make the meal feel extra special, giving families a reason to celebrate with joy and gratitude.
• Packaging and Delivery: Part of the funds covers packaging and delivery to ensure that each basket reaches families in perfect condition.

Every dollar you donate contributes to these essentials, ensuring that each family receives a holiday meal that brings comfort and togetherness.

How Different Donation Amounts Make an Impact

With each basket costing $40, here’s how different donation levels contribute to reaching our $15,000 goal:

• $10 Donation: Helps cover essential items for one Thanksgiving meal, such as sides like stuffing and potatoes.
• $25 Donation: Covers over half the cost of a basket, funding a substantial part of a family’s meal.
• $40 Donation: Provides one family with a full Thanksgiving basket, ensuring they have everything needed for a memorable holiday.
• $100 Donation: Sponsors complete Thanksgiving meals for two and a half families, extending the reach of your impact.
