2. Richmond Food Bank The Richmond Food Bank is an amazing organization that provides meals to food-insecure Virginians year-round — including on Thanksgiving! Last year, the nonprofit’s Thanksgiving Food Drive brought in 18,000 pounds of food that were redistributed throughout the community, and they’re on pace for another great year. The Food Bank offers weekly grocery drop-offs, and folks in need can sign up online by visiting RichmondFoodBank.org and clicking “Get Help.” You can also learn how to donate or volunteer there by clicking the “Donate” or “Volunteer” buttons. Diversity Richmond, Your Place Sports Bar & Grill, and Mr. Girlee’s Kitchen also gave away Thanksgiving dinners last year, so keep an eye on their websites and social media pages for updates. They could come through again in 2021!

If you’re not much of a cook or are going through a tough time financially, Thanksgiving can be one of the most disheartening times of the year. Fortunately, multiple organizations and restaurants in the Richmond area have your back! These two groups offer free Thanksgiving meals to those in need and also accept donations if you have the means to give. 1. The Giving Heart Community Thanksgiving Feast This annual event put on by The Giving Heart feeds hundreds of people each year in the Greater Richmond Convention Center. Last Thanksgiving, volunteers also offered carryout meals, curbside pickup, and essentials like clothing, blankets, and toiletries. This year, the event will be totally to-go! To learn more about the feast and how to donate if you can, visit TheGivingHeart.org/General-Information.
