Our goal this year is simple and powerful: to feed 100 families between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Through our Feast of Thanks initiative and our Holiday Season Food Support Drive, Ignite Families is committed to ensuring that households facing hardship have the food, stability, and warmth they need during the most meaningful time of the year. Every donation brings us one step closer to placing meals on tables, lifting burdens, and helping families experience a season filled with hope and dignity.
*Donations are tax-deductible and processed through our sister charity, the True Legacy Initiative, a 501(c)(3) organization.
Feast of Thanks from Aldi
Families connected to Ignite Families — including reunified families, kinship caregivers, and foster households — are experiencing real financial strain this holiday season. We aim to ensure they not only stay together but celebrate together.
Your donation provides:
A full Thanksgiving meal sourced from Aldi
Hope, dignity, and a sense of belonging at a time when it matters most
Holiday Season Food Support Drive
Extending the Feast of Thanks Into a Season of Giving
As the response to our Feast of Thanks campaign continues to grow, Ignite Families is expanding this effort into a full Holiday Season Food Support Drive. Many families we support face ongoing food insecurity long after Thanksgiving, and the holiday season can bring added financial strain, rising costs, and pressure to create a sense of celebration despite limited resources.
This expanded initiative helps ensure families receive meaningful food support throughout November and December, offering stability and hope during one of the most challenging times of the year.
What This Holiday Drive Supports
Your donation goes directly toward:
Additional grocery support for families experiencing hardship
Holiday meal kits beyond Thanksgiving, including seasonal staples and family-friendly foods
Supplemental food assistance for reunified families, kinship caregivers, and foster households facing financial strain
Every contribution is transformed into real food placed into real homes — exactly when families need it most.
Why Extend the Campaign?
Food insecurity doesn’t end after Thanksgiving. Families often face:
Higher costs for groceries in December
Increased expenses during the holiday season
School breaks that reduce access to meals for children
Added pressure to meet basic needs during holidays
