2026 Thanksgiving Day Outreach Food Distribution
33nd Annual Thanksgiving Outreach Day for Greene County, Tennessee
Thanksgiving 2025 is over and done. Thanks to everyone who participated in any way: the cooks, the meal packers, the delivery drivers, the Wednesday night prep workers, the people who donated around $16,000 required to pay for the event, everyone who ordered meals for themselves or someone else, everyone who said a prayer for the event. We couldn't have done it without each and every one of you.
We have already started planning for Thanksgiving 2026 (November 26th). Our meetings are now 7 pm at Cedar Hill CPC, 4170 Newport Hwy, Greeneville, TN first Tuesday of the month for now.
As we get ready for Thanksgiving Day 2026, we are looking for churches and other organizations to partner with us and volunteer to provide and prepare green beans and sheet cakes. We will buy the turkey, gravey, and rolls along with dressing and sweet potato casserole but they will need volunteers to pick them up, heat them up, and get them back. Since Greene county is so large we expect to have 60-65 delivery routes. Stay tuned for volunteer sign-ups as we approach November 26, 2026.
The per meal costs for 2025 was a little over $6.00 and at 2500 meals that means we spent around $16,000 for the event. We rely entirely on community donations to fund this event! Stay tuned here or visit our Facebook page for updates.
