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.
When we give together, we do more than fill tables — we restore hope and humanity.
Real Food. Real Families. Real Impact.
This Thanksgiving, we’re providing 1,000 families in need across our community with complete holiday meals — made possible through kindness and care.
Each basket includes all the nonperishable essentials for a traditional feast: vegetables, stuffing, gravy, cranberry sauce, desserts, and holiday touches that bring comfort and connection. Real, quality ingredients that help families gather, give thanks, and feel valued.
How It Happens
Every basket is a community effort. Your donations fund the meals, and local volunteers assemble and prepare them with care. Together, we reach families through four Lifekind Health locations across the High Desert and Inland Empire, ensuring support is accessible to those who need it most — helping them not only through the season, but toward greater stability and self-sufficiency.
