10 Places to Donate This Thanksgiving — Around Collin County & North Texas

A Note from: 
Cindy Coggins Realty Group

As the holidays approach, we find ourselves reflecting on the community we’re fortunate to serve. Collin County is more than a place to work—it’s a place built on connection, generosity, and people who consistently show up for one another.

Over the years, we’ve seen firsthand how deeply that spirit runs. From neighbors helping neighbors, to local businesses stepping in during moments of need, to families giving what they can—this is what makes North Texas feel like home.

Community isn’t just where we live. It’s how we move forward together.

This season, we invite you to join us in supporting local organizations that are making a real impact right here in our area. Whether it’s donating food, contributing essentials, or volunteering your time, even small efforts create meaningful change.
