🎄2026 CHRISTMAS GIFT CARD APPEAL🎄

This year, our Christmas Gift Card Appeal is bigger than ever!
We have received requests for 290 teens in care to receive a gift card this Christmas. ❤️

That’s the largest number we have ever had requested through our Christmas Appeal, and we would love our amazing community to help us make sure every young person receives a gift they can choose for themselves.

🎁 Our goal: 290 x $30 Ultimate Teen Gift Cards
💰 That’s $8,700 needed to make Christmas a little brighter for 290 young people.
For a young person in care, receiving a gift card can mean so much. It provides the opportunity to choose something they really want, something they need, or simply something that makes them feel remembered and included at Christmas.

✨ HOW YOU CAN HELP ✨
❤️ Donate — every contribution, big or small, helps us get closer to our goal.
