The Friendsgiving Campaign is one of two major fundraisers the Thomas Merton Family Center runs each year to support our annual operating budget. With $0.87 of every dollar raised directly supporting our programs, you can trust that TMFC makes the stewardship of your generosity a priority.
Thanks to the generosity of our donors and partners, our kitchen just got a big upgrade! A new pancake griddle and freezer are helping us serve more meals than ever, up to 200 pancakes an hour! With continued food donations from Dorothy Day, we’re keeping our freezer stocked and our community fed. Helping our neighbors is what we do BEST!

At the Thomas Merton Family Center (TMFC), every meal served and every bag of groceries distributed through the food pantry carries a deeper purpose: nourishing not just the body but also the spirit of community. It was in this spirit that a simple question from pantry guests sparked an initiative that would empower them far beyond the kitchen.
