We're Making a Difference
This Thanksgiving, join the Lifekind Foundation in our mission to restore health and hope across the High Desert and Inland Empire. Our annual Thanksgiving Basket Initiative goes beyond providing holiday meals—it's a gateway to year-round comprehensive care that addresses the root causes of food insecurity and health disparities.
Together with our community partners and dedicated volunteers, we're ensuring 1,000 families receive nutritionist-curated Thanksgiving baskets while connecting them to integrated healthcare services, mental health support, and community resources that create lasting change.
Our Thanksgiving Baskets
Here's How It Works
Each Thanksgiving basket is filled with nonperishable ingredients to help you prepare a comforting holiday meal at home. Baskets include a variety of shelf-stable foods such as canned vegetables, stuffing mix, gravy, cranberry sauce, and dessert items — plus a few seasonal extras to make the day special. Our goal is to provide families with everything they need to enjoy a hearty, traditional Thanksgiving meal together.
