Holiday Hope Project

2025 Holiday Hope Project

For over 25+ years, thousands of children and families have seen their holiday wishes come true because of the generosity of people like you.

Holiday Hope matches sponsors with Child & Family’s clients who are burdened with financial worries, illnesses, mental and physical disabilities, limited education and resources, and personal tragedies which have left them unable to provide for themselves or their families.

Guidelines for Shopping

When shopping for families to donate to, focus on buying essential items like food, clothing, and hygiene products that are versatile and suitable for various ages. It's important to consider the specific needs of the families, such as seasonal clothing or baby supplies, and to prioritize quality over quantity to ensure the donations are both useful and durable. Additionally, avoid purchasing any perishable items.

Drop Off

Tuesday, December 9, 2025. Further information regarding drop off times/location will come with your sponsor sheet.

Food Cards (do not send food items)

This year, we're requesting food cards for families to purchase their preferred food. Please consider the family's size when buying cards. Place food cards in a separate envelope labeled with the family's HHP number.

Household

Bath towels, kitchen towels, dishes, pots and pans, and cooking utensils are helpful.

Hygiene

Personal hygiene items are useful and thoughtful. These include toothbrushes, toothpaste, soaps, shampoos, hairbrushes, and gift certificates to stores where undergarments could be purchased.

Gift Wrapping

Please be sure to wrap all gifts and label them with names and the family's HHP number.

Family Time

Keeping families active and together is key. Gift certificates to family restaurants and video stores, movie tickets, tickets to shows and events, and disposable cameras for memories help accomplish this goal.

Education

Books, puzzles, writing supplies, arts and crafts, and learning games are great.

Warmth

Pajamas, blankets, coats, hats, gloves, socks, and scarves are great for all ages and are greatly needed.
