SEASONAL PROGRAMS
Seasonal activities and holidays are such an amazing time for most of us. However, for some parents, these are some of the toughest times. Items such as good school supplies, big Thanksgiving meals, and Christmas gifts are considered luxuries and unfortunately, when you have to choose between bills or a luxury, the bills will always win. When most kids and parents are grateful for a week off of school, some parents are anxious about how they will feed their children when they depend on the school free lunches. These are the very reasons why these programs are so special for us.
Hundreds of local families have full bellies each Thanksgiving because of YOU! Our Thanksgiving Baskets are filled with everything they need for a special holiday meal due to your generosity. You can support this effort by:

This December, 1,000 children will experience the joy of Christmas through Sharing Life’s Christmas Faire. Parents will have the dignity of choosing gifts that will light up their children’s faces on Christmas morning — a moment made possible by people like you.
This year the Christmas Faire will take place December 18th and 19th, and we need your help to make it extra special for every family we serve. Your kindness can make all the difference this holiday season.

We are honored to partner with Travis Frederick’s Blocking Hunger Foundation, The Dallas Morning News Charities, and the City of Mesquite Spread the Love campaign to provide a feeding program for clients of Sharing Life. Our Nourish2Flourish feeding program provides weekly bags to school-age children with 5 days worth of breakfast, lunch, and snack items. This program is active any time our students are out of school for a week or more, including summer break.
Registration is now Closed. Please follow us on Facebook for the latest updates!
