support Foster youth

our Mission

In Texas, we empower teens in foster care with resources to thrive in their education and beyond. During the holiday season, we bring joy by fulfilling wishlists submitted by each teen, carefully purchasing and wrapping gifts like laptops, shoes, and clothing to meet their unique needs. Alongside these personalized gifts, we provide essentials, such as gift cards for personal or educational expenses, to support their independence and well-being year-round. Together, we’re building brighter futures for our youth.

How it works

What We Give

During the holiday season, teens in foster care often face unmet needs for essential items like laptops for education, new shoes, and clothing. We bring joy by fulfilling each teen’s holiday wishlist, providing not just gifts but tools to support their education and independence. To add extra warmth, we include a Christmas stocking for each teen filled with thoughtful essentials and treats, plus a few surprise gifts to make the season truly special.

 

Partnerships

We collaborate with local organizations to supply us with the teens' Christmas lists and help us get in touch with the youth’s caseworker. This ensures privacy for the teens, and allows us to shop for them directly off their wishlists, making sure they get exactly what they are wishing for.

Distribution

We coordinate with local organizations that support foster youth to drop off the gifts at their office, and then the caseworkers come and pick them up to deliver the gifts directly to the youth.

Community

We raise awareness through campaigns, inviting everyone to join our mission to uplift youth in foster care. Local volunteers help wrap and decorate the gifts with love and care, spreading the holiday joy!
