Giving Thanks is our holiday food drive for the advertising industry. We start off the process by mailing several hundred boxes to our clients in markets across the country. Each box contains a generously-sized bag and a few non-perishable food items to get started. We encourage recipients to fill the bag with appropriate food items and drop it off at a local food bank.

With the help of our newspaper partners, we have compiled a list of food banks in major markets across the country. We encourage recipients who don't find a location on our list to contact Feeding America (formerly Second Harvest) who keep a national database of food banks.

This is the second year for Giving Thanks. (Here's some news coverage from last year.) This year's project is almost twice as large. (More coverage of this year's program.) We're not sure if this will become an annual event for us, but we encourage everybody to help in their own local community on an ongoing basis.

If you received a package, please provide feedback. Send us an email that shares your thoughts.
