about
Celebrating 21 years of providing Thanksgiving meals to needy families across Collin County!
This program provides delicious, nutritious Thanksgiving dinners to low-income families in Collin County. The entire program is funded by donations from St. Gabriel parishioners. The Men's Club organizes the event, and with the help of volunteers, prepares the baskets and distributes the meals.

meeting the need
Last year because of COVID and financial strains from shutting down the economy to address the pandemic we saw the single greatest year of requests for turkey basket meals. While we tried our best to meet the increased need we were able to provide over 600 Thanksgiving dinners to the needy of Collin County. This year the need is still there, and we expect to see the same level of requests or more. Please help, your generosity helped those less fortunate know that St Gabriel’s parishioners care! You can give or volunteer.
What your monetary donation* will do:
- $40 will feed 1-3 people
- $70 will feed 4-7 people
- $100 will feed 8-11 people
*Your generous donation will be used to provide a Thanksgiving meal from St. Gabriel to a needy family here in North Texas. Any leftover funds will be used to support another food insecurity project/organization as determined by the Men's Club leadership team by the end of 2021.
The family will also receive a welcome message from St Gabriel inviting them to attend Christmas mass with us and to share in the warmth of the season.
