It’s so easy to say yea and your donation matched by millions of fellow Texans make a world of difference – it can be Christmas to a foster child spending their first holiday away from home as many law enforcement agencies do throughout Texas through their Blue Santa and Brown Santa programs. Many Texas retailers use the roundup to the next dollar method to donate millions to worthy causes. When you’re out shopping if your purchase is $21.50 consider rounding up your purchase to $22.00 and putting that fifty-cent balance into one of those red kettles. Last year those red kettles raised almost $119 million to help those in need during the Christmas holidays.
The Salvation Army tradition of the red kettle and their bell ringers dates to 1891. They will find familiar red kettle at thousands of Texas retailers. If you’d like to donate, go to and click on ‘Texas’ on the map.Īnd Texans pour into stores to start Christmas shopping on the traditional Black Friday. When you support your local food banks and food pantries you are also supporting your fellow Texas brothers and sisters. Many Texas families rely on food banks and food pantries to put food on the table during the holidays. As your Texas Agriculture Commissioner, I’m responsible for the nutrition and healthy eating of Texas school children statewide- ensuring every Texas child gets a nutritious meal is a top priority for me. Many of these organizations help fill the gap for underprivileged young Texans who depend on their schools for two meals a day. You may also find that many food pantries are often much closer and can be just as helpful. Let’s face it, in this busy season they could all use a little extra help. I encourage all Texans to volunteer at your local food banks in the coming week to help those less fortunate have a delicious and memorable holiday meal. There are numerous ways to help you fellow Texans this holiday season. If you are looking for a way to support our service members, is a great resource. Just as Lincoln intended 158 years ago, Texans should use the week of Thanksgiving to serve and assist those less fortunate- specifically veterans, active military soldiers, and their families. In his proclamation, President Lincoln asked that God “commend to His tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners, or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife in which we are unavoidably engaged…”
Did you know that the modern-day Thanksgiving celebration Americans recognize today, can be credited to President Abraham Lincoln who initiated the tradition with a Presidential proclamation in 1863 during the Civil War?
