Open Your Heart to Create a Special Albuquerque Thanksgiving

by Sandi Pressley

The Sandia Mountains seem to glow brighter when the ABQ comes together. This Thanksgiving, while the smell of green chile/pine nut stuffing fills the air, thousands of our neighbors need a helping hand—and your hands could make the difference.
Albuquerque is different from most cities. In Albuquerque, we're not just neighbors—we're family. Each Victorian home in Huning Highland and adobe dwelling in Old Town tells a story. Sadly, some stories include empty plates and lonely hearts, and the holidays can intensify these feelings.
Where Can You Bless Your Community?
Roadrunner Food Bank: They need people for turkey distribution. Forget the gym, and try a new workout, lifting frozen turkeys.
Joy Junction: Serve meals with a side of dignity. Your smile could bring hope brighten someone's day.
Silver Horizons: Help deliver meals to our elderly neighbors. Bonus: You may learn alot about old Albuquerque as your elderly neighbors share their stories.
Storehouse New Mexico: Stock shelves, pack food boxes, and maybe practice a little Spanglish with fellow volunteers.
What You'll Get in Return
A full heart, fuller than your Thanksgiving tummy
New meaningful stories to share at your own dinner
New friends who share your giving spirit
The satisfaction of knowing you've made ABQ a better place
Ready to Be a Holiday Super Hero?
Share life with those in need on your time. Whether you share an hour or two or a whole day, every minute matters. Make it a family event, bring some friends, or come alone—you’ll be welcomed with open arms—just like that tía’s who always have room for one more at their table.
In the land of enchantment, we don't just dream about making a difference – we come together to make it happen, one heart at a time. If you can't volunteer on Thanksgiving Day, our community organizations throughout the Holidays. Your bright, giving spirit can lift someone up any day of the year!
