About the program
What this looks like on the ground
Our volunteers spend the weeks before Thanksgiving sourcing turkeys, sides, and pantry staples — then sorting, packing, and hand-delivering meals to families nominated by local churches, schools, and community groups.
A $200 sponsorship covers one complete Thanksgiving meal. Volunteer slots open in early November for sorting, packing, and delivery days across the Houston region.
How it works
A simple, human process
Nominate or sponsor
Community partners nominate families; sponsors fund meals at $200 each.
Source & pack
Volunteers gather turkeys, sides, and pantry staples and box them by family size.
Hand-deliver
Delivery teams bring meals directly to families the weekend before Thanksgiving.
Receiving a complete Thanksgiving meal meant our family could focus on being together instead of worrying about the table.
Questions
Good to know
How can I nominate a family?
Reach out to contact@pgmfoundation.org by mid-October with a short note about the family and the nominating organization.
Can I volunteer with my kids?
Yes — packing days are family-friendly. Delivery days require an adult driver.
Is my sponsorship tax-deductible?
Yes. The PGM Foundation is a Texas 501(c)(3) nonprofit and you will receive a receipt for your records.
