In the spirit of National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week, the Chris Howell Foundation is partnering with Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Dallas and Bethlehem Pentecostal Church to host a Thanksgiving-focused food distribution event on Friday, November 22, 2024. This event will be held at the West Dallas Club located at 2060 Singleton Blvd, Dallas, TX, from 2:30 PM to 6:30 PM, where 350 families will receive Thanksgiving turkeys and food boxes to help them prepare for the holiday season.

“At the Chris Howell Foundation, we believe in the power of community partnerships to bring meaningful change,” said Dominique Bryant-Howell, Executive Director of the Chris Howell Foundation. “This collaboration with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Dallas and Bethlehem Pentecostal Church is a testament to what we can achieve together to address food insecurity and support families in preparing for Thanksgiving.”

Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Dallas expressed their commitment to supporting families in need during the holiday season. “As an organization dedicated to enriching the lives of young people, we know that providing for the basic needs of families is essential to creating a thriving community,” said Karen Tan, President & CEO.

In addition to Thanksgiving turkeys, families will receive food boxes containing essential groceries and ingredients to help them create a memorable holiday meal. All items will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis.
