Nicole and Tom’s Moment


Thankfully, she had been referred to Bridges of Hope by a local food shelf, who knew that Bridges is the coordinator for our community’s unique Thanksgiving Baskets program. Churches, businesses and individuals sign up to sponsor a family’s meal for Thanksgiving, and families in need sign up to receive a Basket. Bridges of Hope matches the sponsors with families, sharing how many people are in the family and where they live, and the sponsor goes out to purchase items for a full Thanksgiving meal.

By the end of that same day, Nicole’s family was matched with a waiting sponsor, who assembled a Basket and delivered it to Nicole a couple days before Thanksgiving. Nicole and Tom were able to enjoy a turkey dinner with mashed potatoes and stuffing–while still being able to continue to pay their ongoing household bills themselves.
