Secret Santa for Families in Clear Need Gifts for Kids, Parents & Pets

This holiday season we are looking for a small number of families who could use help with Christmas gifts. We want to provide thoughtful gifts for the children, something special for the parents, and treats or gifts for any family pets.

If this resonates with you, please apply. Similarly, if you are grandparent, friend, neighbor, or other caring person who knows a family in clear need, you are welcome to submit an application on their behalf (with their knowledge and permission).

Who can apply (or be applied for):

Families who are clearly in financial need. Please be honest about the situation we are taking applicants at their word in the spirit of Christmas. We believe in sowing kindness and watching it return (as you give, so shall it come back to you).

What we need from you:

- Brief description of the family's needs (no long stories required)

- Names/ages of children and any pets

- Wish lists or gift ideas for kids, parents, and animals (keep them reasonable)

- Preferred contact method and general location (city/area only)

- If you are submitting for someone else, please note your relationship to the family and confirm they are aware of the application

- Confirmation that the request is made in good faith

How to apply:

Reply to this message with the subject line Secret Santa Family Application and include the details above. Applications will be reviewed on a first-come, first-served basis while spots remain. We will reach out only if we are able to help the family.

Please apply only if the family truly needs the help. We are limited in how many families we can support and want to make sure the gifts go where they are needed most. Thank you, and God bless.
