Purchase gifts for children in need this holiday season

For 2024, PLEASE NOTE:

Thank you for your interest in helping children served by our food pantry! Our Help for the Holidays program has reached the deadline for community sponsors.

We will begin matching generous community sponsors with client families again in September 2025. Happy Holidays!

We are so grateful for everyone who has registered to “adopt” children served by our food pantry to purchase holiday gifts for them. We are in awe at how quickly donors registered to sponsor the 1,000 children we will serve this year. We recognize that some sponsors weren’t able to get in touch with us in time to purchase holiday gifts. Thank you for your willingness, we still need your help. Please click on the link below to make a monetary donation to support our food pantry and our holiday assistance program.

Another way to support local children in need this holiday season is by donating books to our food pantry. Each year we distribute 15,000+ books to the children age 12 and under that we serve. Here is a link to an Amazon wish list where you can purchase books and have them shipped directly to our food pantry: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/IJXVNAH9DR6H/ref=hz_ls_biz_ex

We also welcome donations of gently used children’s books. They can be dropped off at our food pantry Monday-Friday from 12:30-3pm and until 7pm on Tuesday evenings.

Client Registrations

Our holiday gift program has reached capacity for 2024 and we are not able to accept any more registrations from clients seeking holiday gifts.

Donation drop-off instructions:

Gift drop-off will be by appointment. A SignUp Genius link will be emailed to you in early December.

Appointments will take place Dec. 12, 13, & 14.

Please do not have gifts shipped directly to Interfaith. Please ship them to your home or office. We want to ensure that all children get the specific gifts purchased for them.
