Thanksgiving Drive 2025
Fourth Annual Turkey Drive With Klein Forest High School
SPRING, TX - Bridge The Gaps, a registered non-profit 501(3)(c) organization, had the wonderful opportunity and honor to partner with Klein Forest Athletics for our Fourth Annual Thanksgiving Drive. This year increasing to 300 turkeys…with sides, provided to the underprivileged Spring community.
This is what 300 turkeys look like.
“We were very excited to partner with Klein Forest Athletics on this huge initiative," mentions Omar Durham, Founder and CEO of Bridge The Gaps. Bridge The Gaps was specifically responsible for providing the turkeys for the Thanksgiving food drive and the students worked together to provide canned and nonperishable goods for the side options.
Teen Involvement & Community
Durham continues, “This initiative really pulled our full community together! We had hands-on help and donations from our board members, local Spring businesses, our 2026 partners, and individual donations throughout the community. We can’t be more pleased with how many families we were able to help this Thanksgiving. We know we couldn’t have done this without everyone’s help and involvement. Thank you to everyone who helped Bridge The Gaps. I can’t say thank you enough.“
“We also had a great turnout from the students! We had several Klein Forest High School athletic students and members of the adminstration ready and eager to help with passing out turkeys, despite the wet start to the day! We also had some laughs, some fun, and lots of hugs from very thankful recipients. That’s what it’s all about.” Durham reflects.
In addition to programs such as the Annual Thanksgiving Drive, Bridge The Gaps also supports and provides additional support throughout the community and the year with continuous programs such as Families First and Healthy Kids.
“This is our first year in partnership with Klein Forest High School athletics, and we are looking forward to what we can accomplish next year!” Durham concludes.
Bridge The Gaps would like to thank everyone for their help and donations, and wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving season!
