Thanksgiving Dinner Program
       

Volunteer Opportunity:
Thanksgiving Dinner Program
for the Community Storehouse

Every year, the Keller Council of PTA's and KISD Administration contribute to putting together dinner baskets for the Community Storehouse’s Thanksgiving Dinner Program. The Community Storehouse is a 501(c)(3) crisis relief agency established in 1982 to serve the children in our local community. Traditional Thanksgiving dinners will be distributed on November 23.

There are up to 3 ways you can make a difference this Thanksgiving. Whether it's your time, a donation of food or finances, the children of our community are grateful for you!

*Please remember that volunteers must be at least 10 years old and volunteers between 10 and 13 years old must be accompanied by a parent. You should be able to lift heavy boxes of food.
