The first non belligerent contact with the Indians was several months later with Wampanoag tribe who saw the colonists and their European weapons as a possible counter to the Narragansett indians who had been waging a brutal war of annihilation against them.

So far from being an act of Indian charity the first thanksgiving was actually a mutual benefit to both groups.
