Giving back during the holiday season is a wonderful way to spread joy and make a positive impact on your community. Here are six ways to give back this holiday season:  

1. VOLUNTEER YOUR TIME:

Many organizations and charities need volunteers during the holiday season. You can offer your time and skills to help with various tasks, such as serving meals at a local shelter, wrapping gifts for underprivileged children, or participating in a neighborhood cleanup. Look for opportunities in your area or through online volunteer platforms.  

2. DONATE TO A FOOD DRIVE:

Food drives are a common way to help those in need during the holidays. You can collect non-perishable food items and donate them to a local food bank, pantry, or shelter. Check with these organizations to see what specific items are most needed, as they often have specific requests. Here are some specific things to be aware of as you shop for items to donate.

3. ADOPT A FAMILY OR INDIVIDUAL:

Many organizations and communities offer programs where you can "adopt" a family or individual in need for the holidays. You provide them with essential items, clothing, and gifts to make their holiday season brighter. Contact local charities or social service agencies to find out how you can participate in such programs.  

4. MAKE A FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTION:

Charitable donations are always appreciated. Consider making a financial contribution to a nonprofit organization or charity that aligns with your values. You can also set up a recurring donation to support their ongoing work. Many organizations offer options for one-time donations or monthly giving.  

5. CREATE CARE PACKAGES:

Assemble care packages with essential items and holiday goodies to distribute to the homeless, seniors, or individuals in need in your community. These packages can include items like warm clothing, blankets, hygiene products, non-perishable snacks, and handwritten notes or cards to spread kindness and cheer.

6. PARTICIPATE IN THE #GIVEAHAM CHALLENGE:

Every year, agriculturalists across the country participate in a #GiveAHam challenge. You can donate a ham to your local food pantry so families can have fresh meat for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinners. For more information on the #GiveAHam challenge, click here.   Remember that giving back doesn't have to be limited to the holiday season. Acts of kindness and generosity can make a difference in people's lives throughout the year. Choose the method that resonates most with you and fits your abilities and resources, and make a positive impact on those in need.
