CEO Annual Thanksgiving Project
No family should go without a holiday meal. Each year, the CEO/Weinberg Food Bank works to make sure children, elderly neighbors, and families across our community can gather around a full table this Thanksgiving. But the need is greater than ever. Volunteer a shift, host a food drive, or donate today, and help us meet it.
Volunteer with CEO
Join a team of caring community members giving their time to deliver food, hope, and support — and truly make an impact in people’s lives.
Host or Join a Food Drive
Help collect, sort, and distribute food. You can organize or join a drive to support neighbors in need and strengthen our community.
Donate to the Annual Thanksgiving Project
There are so many families with children and elderly neighbors who would not be able to enjoy a holiday meal without our community’s help. With such an immense need ahead of us this year, the CEO/Weinberg Food Bank needs your help!
