This Thanksgiving, we’re bringing something truly special to the town of Marshall, North Carolina:
PROJECT: Thanksgiving in Marshall.
After the devastation wrought by Hurricane Helene, it’s time for the citizens of Marshall to take a well-deserved break, relax, and enjoy an evening of food, fun, and friendship. We want to celebrate this community’s resilience and offer them an experience filled with warmth, laughter, and delicious Thanksgiving food.
PROJECT: Thanksgiving in Marshall is more than just a meal—it’s an opportunity for the community to gather and create new memories beyond their hardship. On November 28, 2024, we organize a grand Thanksgiving dinner, including festive decorations, Christmas gifts for the children, and a Christmas tree to spark extra holiday cheer. It’ll be a day to pause, take a deep breath, and enjoy the magic of the holiday season in the company of friends and neighbors.
This heartfelt project wouldn’t be possible without the generous collaboration of various hosts and community members, including Something Significant, Grace Point Church in Mooresville, First Baptist Church in Marshall, WYTV7 Community Broadcasters Network, G&G Sportswear-USA., and Community Leadership Academy. We are all coming together with one goal: to uplift the spirits of Marshall’s residents and remind them that they are loved and supported.
From the volunteers helping to prepare and serve food to those donating their time and resources, every individual involved in this project is committed to making Thanksgiving ’24 in Marshall unforgettable. We’ll have folding tables and chairs that guests can take home if they need them, and we’re ensuring that every aspect—from the dinnerware to the gifts for kids—is organized with care and love.
We also need your help to make this day as special as possible. Whether you can provide a donation, lend a hand on the day of the event, or help us spread the word, your support will go a long way. Together, we can create a beautiful day filled with joy, gratitude, and love for the community of Marshall.
PROJECT: Thanksgiving in Marshall is all about the spirit of giving back, coming together, and celebrating what truly matters—each other. Let’s make this Thanksgiving a day to remember for the incredible people of Marshall.
