Your Donations Have Impact: How Houston Basket Brigade is Making a Difference This Thanksgiving

At Houston Basket Brigade, we believe that every donation, no matter the amount, makes a powerful impact. We’re thrilled to be partnering with wraparound programs within HISD schools to deliver Thanksgiving meal baskets to families in need. This year, we have set our sights on bringing warmth, nourishment, and a sense of community to families across Houston, and with your help, we can achieve it!

Here’s a breakdown of how your donations directly support our mission and the families we serve:

$10 - Grocery Gift Card for Turkey or Ham

Even a small donation goes a long way! For just $10, you can provide a grocery gift card for a turkey or ham. This essential item is often one of the biggest costs for families during Thanksgiving, and your contribution makes it possible for them to enjoy a holiday centerpiece without worry.

$30 - Basket for a Family of Four

For $30, you can sponsor an entire Thanksgiving basket for a family of four. These baskets include all the essentials for a holiday meal, from staples to comforting sides and a few treats. Each basket brings joy and a sense of belonging to a family that may otherwise go without.

$120 - 4 Baskets for 4 Families

If you're able to give $120, you’re making an impact on four families by sponsoring four full baskets. This donation level is perfect for those who want to make a bigger difference, helping multiple families experience the magic of Thanksgiving. It’s a way to spread joy and build community bonds, one family at a time.

$500 - A School with a Small Number in Need

For $500, you can make a difference on a larger scale by supporting an entire school with a small number of families in need. This contribution ensures that all identified families within that school will have a Thanksgiving meal they can enjoy together. Your generosity lifts up not just individual families, but an entire school community.

$1,500 - A School with a Large Number in Need

For those who want to make a significant impact, a $1,500 donation supports a school with a larger number of families facing food insecurity. This level of giving allows us to reach more families, providing them with everything they need for a meaningful Thanksgiving celebration. It’s an investment in our community’s future, ensuring no family is left behind.

Why Your Donation Matters

Each contribution directly supports our partnership with HISD schools, where we work with wraparound programs to identify families in need. This means that every dollar you donate goes straight to Houston families who could use a helping hand this holiday season. By joining us, you’re not only filling a basket with food—you’re filling homes with hope, comfort, and a reminder that their community cares.
