3rd Annual

Ronald McDonald House

Thanksgiving Dinner Food Drive

It's never too early to start thinking about those in need during the holiday season. It is hard enough to have a sick child, but to have to think about celebrating and fixing a dinner during a difficult time is even harder.

To make the Thanksgiving holiday season a little easier, the club is putting together some "Ready to Go" Thanksgiving Dinner Boxes. (Our goal is 25 boxes). These will be filled with Thanksgiving dinners for those that have not had the time, energy or means to prepare for their holiday meal.

Last year with the generous donations from fellow club members we were able to fill Thanksgiving boxes for 25+ families. Thank you ALL so much for your generous donations!

This year we are doing the food drive a little different. Please sign up to donate a meal or gift card(s) for the perishable foods (ham or turkey, pie, rolls). Bring your meal items or gift card(s) to the Thu. Nov. 6th Club meeting at Idaho Pizza in Eagle. Please check the expiration dates of the donated items and bundle your meal together into one bag/box if possible. If donating gift card(s), please have individual cards for each perishable donation, so we can put the card with each meal. If you are unable to attend the meeting, please contact Athena Pardue ahead of time to donate your items.  

Items to include in a meal are as follows:

Roasting pan (disposable aluminum)

5lb. bag of potatoes or instant potatoes box

Canned corn

Canned green beans

Cream of mushroom soup

Gravy - packets or can or jar

Cranberry sauce

Boxed Mac-n-cheese

Stuffing

Or individual grocery store gift card(s) to cover perishable/frozen items:

Ham or Turkey, rolls & pie

We will be delivering the dinners to Ronald McDonald House on Fri. Nov. 7th at 3:00 pm. If you would like to be a part of the donation process and have a tour of the facility please arrive at 2:45 at
