Local Food Banks to Support
Hey y’all,
The meaning and customs of the Indigenous Heritage Day (Thanksgiving) may vary among individuals and families, but the central theme is one of gratitude and appreciation. Let’s not forget those in need this holiday season and make sure to give back. Donating during this time of year is a beautiful way to express gratitude and give back to your community. Many organizations engage in charitable activities during this time to help those in need. Below are some local food drives in the Seattle and surrounding area.
