The best thing you can give youth and their caregivers this holiday season is the gift of choice! We encourage you to celebrate this season by participating in our Holiday Gift Card Drive to support underserved youth and families. Nationally, we are partnering with Big Brothers Big Sisters of America and in Massachusetts we are partnering with HopeWell and Bridges Homeward.
100% of your donation goes directly towards purchasing gift cards for our local nonprofit partners to distribute to the youth and families they support.Choose the organization you want to donate to.
100% of donations go to local youth and families through community-based organizations.
Thank you! Your donation allows caregivers and young adults to shop for themselves and loved ones.
Below are just three profiles out of the hundreds of families and youth supported by our nonprofit partners. While each youth and family are unique, they share common challenges. Your donated gift card will go a long way to brighten this holiday season for a child, teen, or family facing challenges or feeling isolated this holiday season - perhaps the greatest gift is in knowing that there is someone from their community who cares!
Tiffany and her Little, Virginia, are all about supporting one another. Growing up as an only child, Virginia dealt with confidence issues and always wanted an older sister to look up to and help her through hard times – Tiffany is just that! Virginia and Tiffany spend many of their outings at Barnes and Noble, browsing books, and crocheting. Virginia describes her Big as, “a great role model who means so much to me,” and now wants to become a Big Sister, “just like Tiffany” when she is older! Your donation will give Littles like Virginia the opportunity to buy a gift for themselves or for someone special in their life like a family member or their Big!
David, age 10, has been in foster care since he was 5 years old. David is gregarious and energetic, and makes a positive impression on everyone he meets. He loves people, celebrations, and playing outside. David comes from a family of many siblings, and his relationships with his brothers and sisters are the most important thing in the world to him. Someday in the future, the hope is that David can be adopted by his oldest sister. Until that day comes, Bridges Homeward works very hard with David’s foster parents to keep him connected to his siblings, regularly organizing parties so he can spend time with his brothers and sisters for major holidays like Christmas and for his birthday. Your donation will help make the holiday season brighter for foster youth like David.
