Greensboro, NC – Families in Greensboro and High Point will have the opportunity to pick up free Thanksgiving food boxes this Saturday as the Guilford County Sheriff’s Office hosts its annual holiday food drive giveaway. The distribution will take place November 22, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., with items available while supplies last.
According to the Guilford County Sheriff’s Office, donations of non-perishable foods are still being collected through Wednesday, November 19, to help stock boxes for the weekend event. The agency said the food distribution is intended to support households in need during the Thanksgiving holiday.
Two pickup options will be available for residents. The walk-up resource fair will operate at the Otto Zenke Building, located at 400 W. Washington Street in Greensboro. Those who prefer to stay in their vehicle can use the drive-through pickup site at the Public Health Department parking lot at 501 E. Green Drive in High Point.
The Sheriff’s Office said boxes will be handed out until supplies run out, and no pre-registration is required. Organizers emphasized that both events are open to anyone in Guilford County who may need essential food items heading into the holiday week.
The department also encouraged community members to donate canned goods, boxed meals and other shelf-stable foods. All contributions received this week will directly support Saturday’s distribution.
Residents who plan to attend either site on Saturday morning are encouraged to arrive early, as demand is typically high for the annual event.
