Food Bank of Alaska's Thanksgiving Blessing Set for November 18, 21 and 23: 13 Sites Across Cordova, the Mat-Su Valley and Anchorage, With a Frozen Turkey and H
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Food Bank of Alaska has published the schedule for its annual Thanksgiving Blessing, which provides free holiday groceries in three communities on three dates in 2026: Cordova on Wednesday, November 18, from 3 to 6 p.m.; the Mat-Su Valley on Saturday, November 21, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.; and Anchorage and Eagle River on Monday, November 23, from 2 to 7 p.m. — 13 distribution sites in total, with food available while supplies last.
According to the food bank, each household will receive a frozen turkey and groceries to prepare a traditional Thanksgiving meal, which may include stuffing, potatoes, vegetables, cranberry sauce and butter, with items varying by availability. Thanksgiving Blessing is free, advance registration is not required, there are no income requirements, and participants do not need to receive SNAP or any other public assistance. Visitors should bring proof of their home ZIP code, attend the site serving their ZIP code, and visit only one distribution site; someone unable to attend may have a friend, family member or other trusted person pick up groceries on their behalf. Several Anchorage locations offer walk-through distribution, while others operate as drive-through sites.
The sites are the Little Chapel at 905 Lake Ave in Cordova; six Mat-Su Valley locations, including Faith Bible Fellowship in Big Lake, Mat-Su College and Real Life Church in Palmer, Wasilla Bible Church in Wasilla, Church on the Rock in Talkeetna and Willow United Methodist Church in Willow; and six Anchorage and Eagle River locations, including Central Lutheran Church, ChangePoint Church, a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints meetinghouse, Joy Lutheran Church, the Mountain View Community Center and St. Patrick's Parish. Alaska residents outside the three communities can use the food bank's Find Food page to locate assistance nearby.
