Mission Statement
The mission of the Total Experience Foundation is to help families in need through food, goods, and services. This is achieved through partnerships with local agencies who can properly identify and have ongoing relationships with struggling families. Our goal is that every child enjoys the holiday season and every parent can have the opportunity to spend time on what matters most – their family. In Gloucester County, there are many families that go without food, toys, and more.
Through the Total Holiday Experience, with your support, we are providing families in need with a Full Thanksgiving Dinner (Turkey & Trimmings) and a Breakfast with Santa.
Turkey and Trimmings Event
November 19, 2022 at Total Turf Experience, Pitman, New Jersey
Through this wonderful event, we will provide the makings of 1000 Thanksgiving dinners, each feeding a family of four. Through a quest for dignity and fun, the pickup for each family’s Thanksgiving dinner will include all the trimmings. Each family will receive a turkey and the trimmings to make a delicious meal at home.
Breakfast With Santa
December 18, 2022 at Total Turf Experience, Pitman, New Jersey
This Breakfast with Santa event has been a Gloucester County favorite for the past eight years in partnership with Auletto Caterers and managed by Les Vail. In partnership with Jerry McGough and his team from Total Turf Experience, this year’s Breakfast with Santa will provide 1000 adults and children with a gourmet breakfast, entertainment, free pictures with Santa and a few surprises. Each child, 12 years and younger, will also receive a gift from Santa to be opened on Christmas day.
All interested volunteers to help at the event can contact
