Thanksgiving has never been about what's on the table — it's about who's around it, and everything it took to get there.
This November, the Lifekind Foundation Thanksgiving Drive will reach 1,000 families across Phoenix and Southern California. Each family receives a complete holiday meal: a grocery gift card for the turkey of their choice, and a box packed with every traditional side. The weekend before Thanksgiving, volunteers will pack and load all of it. On Thanksgiving Day, those families sit down.
If your family could use a seat at the table
Registration is open now, and it takes two minutes from your phone. One simple form, in English o en español, and nothing else is required. We will text you your pickup day, time, and location once they are final. Register your family here.
If you want to help set the tables
We need hands. One three-hour shift the weekend of November 21–22, no experience needed, all ages welcome. Groups of ten or more get their own zone with their name on it. Sign up to volunteer.
If your business or congregation wants in
Partnership takes one page, not a committee — groceries, gift cards, logistics, local reach. Start the conversation.
If you want to set one more table
Every $100 sets a complete Thanksgiving for one more family, starting with the waitlist. Every way to give.
Pickup sites in Phoenix and Southern California are being confirmed now. Distribution is November 21–22, 2026.
There's a place at this table for you.
