Goal


Strong City is Tulane’s largest student-run nonprofit driven by the mission to address the cycles of poverty and violence in New Orleans, LA through collaboration with youth-focused local organizations. 

We are raising money to purchase non-perishable goods to assemble Thanksgiving baskets. Our goal is to organize a total of 300 baskets to donate to families supported by our partners the Youth Empowerment Project, New Orleans Women and Children’s Shelter, and Culture Aid NOLA.

Your donations will go directly to Strong City, a 501c3, and allow us to buy these families Thanksgiving meals that they would otherwise not be able to enjoy. One fully packaged box costs $70. Please consider sponsoring a box(es), or whatever you feel comfortable contributing.

We appreciate any and all donations and thank you in advance for your support of this important cause!!


Note: Thanks to our generous donors last season, we have extra funds to put towards this year's efforts. As such, our goal is lower than last year... so we are confident that you can help us raise $12,000 by November 17th so that our partners can provide these meals to their participants! All funds raised after we hit our $12,000 goal will go to Strong City programming to continue to work towards our mission of addressing cycles of poverty and violence in New Orleans.
