WE DID IT! All students have been sponsored! Thank you to all who participated! If you missed out, there are still many ways you can help!

WRAP GIFTS – We will have thousands of gifts to wrap and will be hosting a wrapping party on December 13 at Enterprise Charter School starting at 9 am.

DONATE – We always accept general donations https://littlematchgirl.org/donate-today/

PURCHASE EXTRA GIFTS – We will always accept donations of hats and gloves, socks, small toys, or art/school supplies for those who may need a little extra something. Please indicate it’s a general donation when dropping off. We started an Amazon Wish List so you can easily purchase items and they will ship directly to us! https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/28T34Q84K0J7R?ref_=wl_share

HELP THE FAMILIES - In addition to supporting the children at the school, Little Match Girl also sponsors a few of the school’s families who are in need by purchasing gifts, food, and household items. GIFT CARDS ARE GREAT!

DONATE WRAPPING PAPER - And we are always in need of wrapping paper and tape!

It's Giving Tuesday!
