| The Giving Heart Community Thanksgiving Feast is a free event for those in the Greater Richmond Metropolitan Area. It is an opportunity to come together as a community in celebration of food and fellowship. We invite ALL to our table and hope that you will feel called to join us. We would like to extend a special invitation to the less fortunate, the elderly and those who would otherwise spend Thanksgiving alone. As an all-volunteer, nonprofit organization, it is The Giving Heart's privilege to continue offering this Richmond area tradition. Thank you for allowing us to provide such a wonderful example of community spirit through your donations, attendance and volunteerism. |
How The Giving Heart Community Thanksgiving Feast Works
Guests arrive at the Greater Richmond Convention Center and await entry into the Banquet Hall in our "milling area". In this
area, we feature various offerings to guests - and volunteers. Sometimes we have health screenings, complimentary
massages, musicians and awareness tables that feature information on community services. You never know what you will
find at our event and we're always open to ideas that will help create a "feel good" environment for all.
Upon entering the dining room, guests are greeted by ROTC students who present guests with flowers and escort them to
dining room tables. Our tables are decorated with linen service and centerpieces created by many area groups. At each
table, our signature Table Host awaits the guests to greet them, bring food and cold beverages to the table, and to actually
sit and enjoy food and fellowship. Coffee Service is provided by roving coffee carts.
At the end of the meal, guests are invited to stop in at our Distribution Room where we offer up various necessities such as
food bags, warm weather accessories and Giving Bags (toiletries and other essential items that are created by many in our
community).
