Elevate Branson, a Missouri-based non-profit organization, has been hosting its annual “Love Your Neighbors” Thanksgiving Day Lunch for over a decade, providing a traditional meal to community members in need.
The 16th annual event took place on November 28, 2024, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Our Lady of the Lake Catholic Parish Center in Branson, Missouri.
The event was free and open to all, aiming to bring the community together and ensure that no one spends the holiday alone.
Elevate Branson’s Thanksgiving event serves as both a communal gathering and a fundraiser to support the organization’s year-round programs, including workforce development, affordable housing, and transportation initiatives.
Community members were encouraged to participate through various sponsorship opportunities, such as sponsoring a neighbor’s plate for $25, and by volunteering in roles like cooks, servers, and table companions.
Elevate Branson also provided transportation to the event for those in need, ensuring accessibility for all community members.
The success of the event was made possible by Premier Sponsor Nadia Caver and numerous other donors and volunteers who contributed time, resources, and funding.
