Feed 5000 2021


KICK-OFF YOUR HOLIDAY SEASON BY PARTNERING WITH US TO FEED FAMILIES IN NEED IN ADAMS COUNTY THIS THANKSGIVING!

Feed 5000 is an event that has brought hope and love to the north Denver area for many years. Each Thanksgiving season ThornCreek Church and Food for Hope come together to bring an entire Thanksgiving meal to families that need a little help during this time of the year. We are continuing to live through a time of increased difficulty and despair. Our neighbors need the hope of a holiday meal more than ever.  

We are planning on reducing volunteer numbers and taking COVID-19 precautions, so that we can still deliver these meal boxes.  We will be assembling 2,000 boxes of food that include everything needed to prepare a full holiday dinner for a family of 4-6 people. These boxes will be distributed through the school districts we serve, as well as to community members who may need some extra love this holiday season. Help us give our neighbors the dignity of preparing a meal in their own home when they otherwise would go without.

Sponsor a box for $25 and make a difference in the lives of our neighbors in need.


THANK YOU FOR MAKING A DIFFERENCE!

More Schedule Details & Volunteer Sign-Up Available Soon.

Volunteer sign-up Links will be posted October 22nd.
