Easter Basket Program

Looking to give back to those in need this Holiday season?

Through our Easter Basket Program, we provide food to our client families in need.

At this time, we are in greatest need of:         

GIFT CARDS

Offering the most choice for our clients, gift cards are a highly requested item.  The most frequently requested are:

• Grocery stores
• Gas cards
• All-purpose stores like Target, Meijer, and Walmart

Some of our generous donors have chosen to do a gift card drive at their workplace.

FOOD BASKETS

We will provide each client family participating in the Easter Basket Program with a bountiful food basket for their holiday meal.  Food baskets contain non-perishable holiday meal fixings and other special treats to help our client families without a lot of money to stock the pantry, and enjoy a good holiday meal.

Some creative ideas for food sponsors are to include candles, table decorations, or cooking containers in their food basket.  Donors have also used laundry baskets, or large storage containers to hold all the food and supplies, so client families who receive them can put the container to use in their home, as well.

Baskets can be dropped off at our Agency on March 18th through March 22nd.

If you are interested in donating gift cards or food baskets for the Easter Basket Program, email or call Mary Kay at mkdowling@tricityfamilyservices.org  630-232-1070.
