Thanksgiving week is finally here! Now is the perfect time to support our neighbors who could use some extra help this holiday season.

Many nonprofits and neighborhood groups have organized some inspiring events across the city that still can use your help this week. Check out the list below and you’ll be sure to find an opportunity that you and your family can support.

From all of us at Volunteer Collective, we wish you and your family a healthy Thanksgiving!
