Each year, people all across America gather-up on Thanksgiving morning for a few hours to feed the homeless. Some of these efforts are organized by Gobble Gobble Give, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit charity where your vital donations are 100 percent tax-deductible. For their upcoming gatherings in Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Nashville, NYC, Orange County, and San Diego, participants will bring their own dishes and prepare meals using all the food that comes in (and care packages, too).
