SAVE THE DATE FOR
GIVING TUESDAY 2024!
December 3
Giving Tuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of radical generosity. Giving Tuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Since then, it has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.
For many, this time of year brings joy, warmth, and togetherness. Yet, we are aware that this season brings added stress for people as they struggle to provide for their loved ones. We serve almost 10,000 individuals each week, and as the holidays approach, we anticipate even more families seeking assistance. The food we provide our clients is more than simply filling their shelves; it offers comfort, hope, and a reminder that they are not alone.
This year, Loaves & Fishes is celebrating a special milestone—our 40th Anniversary. As we enter the Thanksgiving season, it’s a perfect time to pause and reflect on the many blessings in our lives. Loaves & Fishes has been blessed with a community that continues to support our mission.
This year, on December 3, Giving Tuesday, we invite you to consider giving a gift to further our mission. We are thrilled to announce that we will again have a matching gift opportunity this year, meaning your donation will go twice as far. No gift is too small, and every contribution helps lift the burden for someone in need. Visit our website or social media outlets for exciting updates on how you can double the impact of your kindness this holiday season.
As we continue to serve more than 10,000 people a week, the generous hearts of our community make that possible. Last year, we served more than 443,000 people; the year prior, we served about 339,000. As more and more families need help, we are thankful that more and more people have stepped up to help.
“I wanted to reach out and personally Thank you for the help! It means a lot to me for those that barely know me to provide me with help during the hardest times of my life! I appreciate you all and I can’t wait till I’m back on my feet so that I can donate and be a part of helping someone else!” L&F Client 2024
