Dear First_Name,
 

Happy Thanksgiving! 🍂🦃

This is a time to reflect on what we are grateful for, and as part of this vibrant university community, we are especially thankful for your curiosity, hard work, and resilience. You are the heart of what makes our campus thrive. 

As we gather with family and friends this Thanksgiving, let’s go “beyond yourself” and consider donating non-perishable food items to our local food bank. This will help ensure that everyone in need have access to nutritious food. Let's come together to support our community. https://basicneeds.berkeley.edu/pantry.

Take this break to relax, enjoy quality time with loved ones, and recharge for the exciting opportunities ahead. 

Wishing you a joyous and restful Thanksgiving!
