This Thanksgiving, We're Grateful For You!

Thanksgiving invites us to pause, gather close, and reflect on the people and moments that bring meaning to our lives. It is a holiday built on connection, on the warmth of family, the comfort of tradition, and the simple joy of sharing a meal with those we love. At the Robert Irvine Foundation, we witness every day how powerful that shared experience can be.

Through our Breaking Bread with Heroes program and in so many of our efforts, meals become more than nourishment. They become moments of healing, understanding, and belonging. Around the table, stories are exchanged, burdens feel lighter, and our heroes are reminded that they are not alone.

This Thanksgiving, we hold in our hearts the service members, veterans, first responders, and families who will spend the holiday far from home or on duty. Their commitment allows the rest of us to gather in safety and peace, and we are profoundly grateful for their sacrifice.

I also want to take a moment to thank you. Your support, whether through giving, volunteering, partnering with us, or simply sharing our mission. This strengthens the work we do every single day. You are part of the Robert Irvine Foundation family, and your generosity ensures that the heroes we serve feel seen, supported, and valued.

As you celebrate this Thanksgiving, I hope your day is filled with gratitude, meaningful conversation, and the comfort that comes from being with the people who matter most.

From my family to yours, from Robert, and all of us at the Robert Irvine Foundation, I wish you a warm, joyful, and heartfelt Thanksgiving.
