Spread Holiday Cheer: Join Our Christmas Meal and Toy Drive

Spread Holiday Cheer: Join Our Christmas Meal and Toy Drive

from $50.00

As the holiday season approaches, we reflect on the importance of community, togetherness, and the joy of sharing a meal with loved ones. However, for many individuals in our community, the holidays can bring stress and uncertainty as they struggle to afford the essentials that make this season special.

This December, Ralph Sampson’s American Tap Room and The Ridley are partnering with the Westhaven CARES Clinic to provide meals to those facing food insecurity. Join us in supporting their efforts as they host a Christmas dinner for underserved communities on Friday, December 20.

Thanks to your generosity, Ralph Sampson’s American Tap Room and The Ridley will prepare and provide the meals. For just $50, you can donate a Christmas meal for two individuals who might otherwise go without. If you choose to donate $100, you can brighten the holiday table for four individuals. In appreciation of your generosity, you’ll receive a $10 Thompson Restaurants gift card for a $50 donation or a $20 gift card for a $100 donation.

In addition to supporting the Christmas meal, Ralph Sampson’s American Tap Room and The Ridley are hosting a toy drive to spread extra holiday cheer. From now until December 20th, we’re collecting new, unwrapped toys for children of all ages—from infants to teens. Drop off your toy donations at either The Ridley or Ralph Sampson’s American Tap Room in the designated donation boxes and help make the holidays brighter for local families.

Join us this Christmas at Ralph Sampson’s American Tap Room and The Ridley to make a meaningful impact in our community. Your support can bring hope, nourishment, and joy to those in need.
