Want to Help/Learn More?...
It is time for our 7th annual Neighborhood Helpers December give. Last year we were able to help almost 50 families. We'd love to have your help to fulfill the needs/wants of more families this year.
We have multiple gives each year. Our December give is the largest. We provide each family with a fully cooked meal that they choose and we fulfill as many of their "gift/need" requests as possible. In years passed we have been able to fulfill all of the items for each member of every family.
Please keep in mind that sponsoring a family is a large monetary commitment. Most of our families don’t have the things they need. We do our best to go above and beyond for every family. In addition to meal & gifts we also provide a "stocking stuffer" bag that includes personal hygiene items, a laundry/cleaning supply bundle, and grocery and/or gas gift cards.
If you choose to sponsor a family or person please make sure you are able to provide most of their request.
This give officially starts November 27th, however, we do our best to match you with a family prior to that so that you can shop sales, etc.
This is the link (link will be added once applications are in) for families that still need sponsors. Once a family/person is sponsored we will remove them from this list
If you want to help but can not sponsor a student please scroll down for wishlist links. Links are also found under links tab

Thank You!
FAQ
WHY IS IT SO EXPENSIVE TO SPONSOR A FAMILY?
Many of the families on our list do not have the funds to fulfill their everyday needs. We use this give to provide as many needs and wants as we can. Most families do not ask for expensive things. However, unlike our own families these families are not provided with fun/gift/want items during the year. We try, extremely hard, to truly spoil each member of the every family.
HOW TO HELP?
There are lots of ways to help! Here are a few:
-
sponsor a person/family
-
cook/bake
-
organize a gift/toiletry drive
-
ask friends/family/co-workers/club groups to collectively sponsor a family
-
monetary donations
-
shop from wish list
-
ask businesses to donate
DO WE HAVE AN AMAZON LIST FOR THIS GIVE?
Yes, we will have one as soon as we have a list of students that have not been sponsored. We will post that link here and on FB.
WHEN WILL WE BE NOTIFIED IF WE GET SPONSORED?
As soon as your family has been sponsored we will let you know within two weeks. We are generally able to provide a meal for most families that sign up. Our donations and funds for fulfilling gift request is limited.
WHERE IS THE MASTER LIST OF NEEDS?
HOW DO WE PICK THE RECIPIENTS?
First we assign sponsors to families sent to us by local school helpers. Next, we sponsor our regular pantry shoppers and referrals from our donors/sponsors. Finally, if we have more sponsors/donated funds, we fulfill requests submitted from neighborhood groups & our website.

Need Help with December Meal & Gifts?
We are happy you have found us. Please understand that filling out this form does NOT guarantee that we will be able to help you. As mentioned above we have an order in which we sponsor students. You will not hear from us if we are unable to help.
​
When filling out the form please be as detailed as possible. We want to provide your family with items they will actually like and use but we can only do that if you tell us exactly what you and your family members want.
​​​
Unfortunately, we can only fulfill gifts for some of the families. We do as much as we can based on donations. Even if we are not able to fulfill gifts we may be able to share a meal with your family.
