To make donations:
A contribution of $10 or more to CBS 12's Project Thanksgiving™ will provide a Thanksgiving meal to local families - and combined with the contributions of other generous people, we can make the holidays brighter for thousands of families.
Last year, this partnership between United Way and CBS 12 raised enough money to provide Thanksgiving meals to thousands of families in Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Indian River and Okeechobee counties. Every penny contributed to CBS 12's Project Thanksgiving™ goes to buy holiday gift certificates. In addition to CBS 12, our generous sponsors are Winn Dixie, Palm Beach Kennel Club and Wachovia Bank. Administrative support is provided by United Way and the Palm Beach County Community Food Alliance.
There are two convenient ways for you to make a donation:
