Holidays & Special Events: Thanksgiving

God’s Love We Deliver will need volunteers to help deliver Thanksgiving feasts to our clients, their families and guests on Thanksgiving morning, November 23. It’s a wonderful way to kick off the holiday season and a great way to give back. Volunteers will pick up meals from distribution centers located in each borough of NYC and deliver them directly to clients’ homes.

Volunteer positions for Thanksgiving 2023 will include:

  • Driver – volunteers will use their own vehicles to deliver meals to 6-8 households, all in proximity to each other.
  • On-Site Support

In addition to delivering holiday meals, volunteers will deliver a special Thanksgiving tote bag filled with festive treats.
