Together We Achieve Launches Turkey Time Together & Family! Feast! Fun! Holiday Dinner Campaign to Support Local Families

Together We Achieve is raising $50,000 to help provide holiday meals for families in Cedar Rapids, Linn County, and surrounding communities through its Turkey Time Together and Family! Feast! Fun! programs.

Thanks to a generous donor, eligible donations will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $25,000 in matching funds for holiday dinners while funds remain available. If the campaign reaches its $50,000 goal and the full match is unlocked, the effort could generate up to $75,000 in combined support.

Donations can help provide holiday dinners for families facing financial hardship. A $25 donation can help provide a dinner for one family, while $100 can help provide dinners for four families, $250 for 10 families, and $1,000 for 40 families.

Registration through the Thanksgiving Food Box Collaborative opens October 22, 2026. The registration form will be shared through Together We Achieve’s official Facebook page and newsletter.

The collaborative works with local organizations to help families access Thanksgiving meal boxes. Its distribution partners include:

Feed Iowa First is also a partner in this effort.

Together We Achieve encourages community members to donate and share the campaign to help more local families enjoy a holiday meal.
