SMG's Season of Giving Campaign

On November 5, 2025, in Red Bank, New Jersey, SMG Holdings proudly announced the launch of its annual Season of Giving campaign, kicking off with a heartwarming Thanksgiving Food Drive. This initiative is designed to assist local families facing food insecurity during the holiday season.

The Thanksgiving Food Drive is a strategic partnership between SMG Holdings and Fulfill of Monmouth & Ocean Counties, a nonprofit organization recognized for its commitment to providing food and resources to those in need. This collaboration aims to collect meal kits that ensure families can enjoy a bountiful Thanksgiving dinner.

Food Drive Details

In 2025, the Thanksgiving Food Drive is the first of several community outreach events planned by SMG for its Season of Giving. The invitation to participate extends beyond just the SMG employees; clients and local businesses are encouraged to join the cause by donating non-perishable food items. These contributions will be assembled into meal kits, which SMG plans to enhance with additional donations of frozen turkeys.

Shannon Prato, the Founder and Executive Chair at SMG Holdings, expressed the importance of this initiative, emphasizing how Fulfill's mission of compassion and service aligns with SMG's goals. Prato stated, "We share a commitment to making an impact for those who rely on us—whether that's our clients or our communities. This year, as we approach our 30th anniversary, we are filled with gratitude for our long-standing relationships and dedicated to paying it forward."

The food drive will continue until November 21, 2025, with all collected items slated for delivery to Fulfill just in time for Thanksgiving. SMG is encouraging local businesses and community members to contribute not only by donating meal kit items but also by spreading the word about this crucial campaign.

How to Get Involved

For those wishing to support the Season of Giving, donations can be dropped off at SMG Holdings Headquarters located at 54 Broad Street, Suite 300, Red Bank, NJ. Contributions are accepted Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET. Each meal kit collected signifies a step towards ensuring that every family can celebrate Thanksgiving with dignity and abundance.
