Support a Family
Give Hope for the Holidays
You can give hope to local children and families impacted by abuse. By offering a little joy and helping families meet their basic needs, you can help provide stability in times of crisis. With your support, children and families can shift from surviving to healing.
Here’s how you can participate:
Shop our Amazon list and have gifts delivered directly to KIDS Center.
Purchase gift cards at local grocery stores, gas stations, or big box stores, and drop off at KIDS Center.
Donate to our Gift Card Fund, and we’ll purchase gift cards on your behalf.
You can bring gift cards to KIDS Center during regular business hours (Monday-Friday, 8 am-5 pm) or drop off gift cards in our drop box located near our front door.
