background

Roland Lajoie of WLVB once again spearheaded Chris' Challenge. As he did last year, he asked everyone to send donations so we could purchase turkeys.

The faith community of Stowe ran their Share For Thanksgiving to raise money to purchase all of the trimmings. Many thanks to St John's in the Mountains Episcopal Church, Blessed Sacrament, Jewish Community of Greater Stowe, Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Stowe and the Stowe Community Church.

We are very grateful to Demars Properties for once again donating storage space so we could collect all of the food needed to fill our bags. Kevin and Adam started shopping in September to be sure we had everything.

We purchased our turkeys and fixings from The Vermont Foodbank, Mac's Market, Hannaford and Shaws. Huge thanks to all!


Thanks to Jeff Foss at Lamoille Trash Services for handling our mountains of cardboard.

Hunger's Hard Baking's Easy brought a carload of goodies to share with our neighbors.

Once again, the community gathered around to make our Thanksgiving giveaway a great success! We handed out 650 turkeys  and bags of fixings!

We heartily thank our staff, volunteers and so many individual and business community members!

        HUGE thanks go out to Stowe Mountain Resort and the Morristown Elementary School  for offering us freezer space so we could purchase our turkeys in advance.

Thanksgiving 2022

We start with lots of empty shelves.

Pile up food.

Add lots of volunteers for packing

How do we do it?

And we are ready to go!

Over six days Kevin and Adam organized our volunteers to greet clients and help them load up their turkeys, bags of fixings, baked goods and veggies.

Lots of community members stopped by with holiday donations!

This is truly a community effort and we are so very grateful to all who contributed time, funds, donations and good thoughts! Happy Holidays to all!
