Each fall, the St. Augustine Social Justice Ministry leads the parish in two opportunities to help DC-area families during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.

Sharing God's blessings with others in need is a wonderful way to celebrate the holiday season. About a week before Thanksgiving, the St. Augustine family provides hundreds of turkeys and food baskets for our neighborhood families who otherwise might not be able to enjoy a Thanksgiving meal.

During the Christmas season, the ministry collects toys for over 500 children through the generosity of our fellow parishioners. Donors can give new, unwrapped, non-violent toys or sign up for the Angel Tree Program and sponsor an assigned child by purchasing toys from their wishlist.

Whether you would like to receive an uncooked frozen turkey with all the trimmings, purchase gifts for children or volunteer to help distribute items, there's plenty of opportunities.
