Just over 20 years ago, students at Holy Cross began a tradition of providing Thanksgiving Food Baskets to local South Bend area families in need. This year our goal is to provide food baskets to 40 families. Each basket will cost roughly $100.00, which means that we really need help to raise $4,000.00.

Any donation amount is appreciated. If you can help us fill the baskets, donate today at http://www.hcc-nd.edu/give-a-gift-today/ , choose "Other" for donation reason and write "Thanksgiving Food Baskets" in the Comments.
