Join Us in Making Thanksgiving Brighter for Our Community

Harbor Care’s Thanksgiving Community Dinner is more than a meal—it’s a moment of warmth, dignity, and connection for our neighbors in need. This year, we’re inviting supporters like you to help us make it happen by launching your own personal fundraising page.

To make it easy, we’ve created a Crowdfunding Toolkit filled with everything you need: messaging templates, social media graphics, giving level details, and tips to help you reach your goal—whatever it may be.

If you’re new to fundraising or need help getting started, we also offer a step-by-step guide to walk you through setting up your personal fundraising page.

Use these tools to let your contacts know you’re fundraising to help feed our community this Thanksgiving.

Be sure to edit all yellow highlighted fields with your own information. And remember—this is your fundraiser, so feel free to adapt the templates to fit your voice!

Your efforts—no matter your fundraising goal—help bring warmth, dignity, and hope to our neighbors this Thanksgiving. Every gift makes a meaningful impact, and every share helps spread the word. We’re so grateful to have you on this journey with us.

Let’s make this season brighter, together.

FAQ:

  1. What if I don’t reach my fundraising goal?
    That’s okay! Every dollar raised helps Harbor Care provide warm, nourishing meals to those in need. There’s no penalty for not reaching your goal—your efforts still make a meaningful impact.
  2. Can I customize the toolkit materials?
    Yes! We encourage you to personalize the email and social media templates to reflect your voice and story. The more authentic your message, the more likely people are to connect and give.
  3. How do I update my fundraising page after it’s published?
    You can edit your page anytime using the link in the “Personalize your Crowdfunding page” email you received when you signed up. If you can’t find it, check your spam folder or reach out to Louise Cook (l.cook@harborcarenh.org) for help.
  4. When should I start sharing my fundraiser?
    The sooner, the better! We recommend launching your fundraiser at least two weeks before Thanksgiving and posting regularly to keep momentum going. Use the toolkit’s templates to make sharing easy.
