Did you know that a record 40% of Massachusetts households—approximately 1.1 million—experienced food insecurity in 2025? The Holliston Pantry Shelf and other organizations like Wayside Youth & Family and Head Start helps those in need on a daily basis. Holliston Newcomers & Neighbors is once again helping these organizations provide gift cards for this special day of thanks. Many families have depended on these gift cards to make their Thanksgiving day a special one so we are once again asking for monetary donations to support these efforts.

Please visit the HNN Donations webpage http://www.hollistonnewcomers.org/donations and select Thanksgiving or if you would prefer to mail your donation, please send a check made out to Holliston Newcomers & Neighbors to Mark Bandies, 713 Norfolk St., Holliston and note that it is for Thanksgiving. 

We are also collecting handmade Thanksgiving Cards which can be dropped off at 922 Highland St., Holliston - a bin will be at the front door. If you have any questions, please email [email protected] .
