Explanation:
If you address such a greeting to a Greek American, then you can say "Hronia Polla". This is what we usually wish on every holiday.

Thanksgiving is Ημέρα των Ευχαριστιών

So, you could also say:
Χρόνια Πολλά για την ημέρα των Ευχαριστιών (Thanksgiving holiday wishes): Hronia Polla gia tin imera tvn Efharistion

I hope this helps!
