On November 25, 2025, The Patrick Shifflett Foundation proudly continued
its Thanksgiving Giving Program. Through this initiative, the foundation
adopted several local families, providing each with a full Thanksgiving meal
complete with all the fixings and a box of pantry staples to help them
through the long holiday weekend.

In early December, the foundation expanded its outreach with a
meaningful Holiday Giving Program, donating 100 coats to a Montgomery
County Public School to help keep elementary-aged students in need stay
warm this winter.

Additionally, the foundation joined efforts with the Salvation Army Angel
Tree Project, donating both coats and toys to support local families. We
were introduced to this impactful program by Karen Ward, who helps
organize it each holiday season. We are truly grateful for the opportunity to
contribute and look forward to being part of this initiative for years to come.

On December 21st, the foundation upheld its cherished Christmas Giving
Tradition by adopting several local families in need of holiday support. Each
family received a Christmas meal, gifts for their children, and a large bin of
groceries to enjoy throughout the holiday break.

A very special thank you goes to Safeway in Damascus for allowing us, for
the sixth consecutive year, to collect canned foods throughout November to
help fill many of these grocery bins. We also extend our heartfelt
appreciation to Porter and Shannon Shifflett for their tireless dedication and
organization of our holiday giving programs.

We are deeply grateful to all the supporters and sponsors of The Patrick
Shifflett Foundation whose generosity continues to make these acts of
kindness possible. Because of your support, we are able to share the true
spirit of the holiday season with families in need — year after year.
