Giving Back This Thanksgiving: Our Team at Open Cupboard

This Thanksgiving, we’re reflecting on what we’re most grateful for: the opportunity to serve our clients and our community.

In the spirit of giving, our team at Laurel Wealth Planning came together to support Open Cupboard—both through a charitable donation and an evening of hands-on volunteering at their Today’s Harvest market.

It was a meaningful way to live out our values of generosity, connection, and service to others.

We invite you to watch the short video below and take a look at a few photos from our evening to see how our team gave back this Thanksgiving season.

In the video, Laura and Mallory share how Laurel Wealth Planning partnered with Open Cupboard this Thanksgiving season and why giving back is such an important part of our mission.

Volunteering Together

Along with our donation, our team spent the evening volunteering at Open Cupboard’s Today’s Harvest market. We worked together to package food, stock shelves, and assist shoppers, learning firsthand how this incredible organization supports our neighbors.
