Other Ways to Give


Can't sponsor a child? Don't have time to shop?
There are many other ways you can help our children at the holidays:
  • Help us stock our "store" for our un-sponsored children. We accept NEW toys, games, gift cards, and other items for children who are not sponsored or who come to us unexpectedly over the holidays. You can also choose to give from the Children's Bureau's Needed Items List.
  • You can give a monetary gift to the Children's Bureau and designate Hope for the Holidays at our SECURE webpage.
  • Organize a fundraiser to benefit Children’s Bureau. Have a bake sale, jean Friday at your office, or another creative idea.
  • Volunteer during the drop-off days! See the schedule below & contact Sarah to sign up.
  • Promote the project to your friends and family; encourage them to follow us on Facebook and Twitter.
