You can check “bake dessert” off your Thanksgiving to-do list! Let the Visiting Nurse Association do the baking with Power of Pie. Pumpkin and pecan pies are available for purchase for $25 each, and pumpkin bread for $15 per loaf at www.powerofpie.org. These delicious fall treats are donated by some of North Texas’ top bakers, including Knife, Central Market, Empire Baking, Ventura Foods, Uncle Willie’s Pies, Sugar and Sage, Brook Hollow Golf Club, Northwood Club, Top Golf, CTI Foods, and more! These treats are perfect for your Thanksgiving dinner.

 

Pies and bread also make thoughtful gifts for clients, employees, friends, family, and teachers. Your purchases and donations help deliver food and friendship to homebound senior neighbors and provide compassionate care to seriously ill patients.

 

We are excited to announce nine pick-up locations this year, including McKinney, Denton, Fort Worth, and various Dallas locations. Pick-up will be on Nov. 26 and 27, just in time for your Thanksgiving feast.

 

A special thank you to our presenting sponsor, Interabang Books, and sponsors Saint Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church, The Jerry R. Junkins Family Foundation, Eiseman Jewels, Texas Instruments, Canary, and MaryBeth Boutique.
