Welcome to the Season of Sharing campaign hosted by Child and Family Services of Grand Erie Foundation. We are thrilled to embark on this journey to bring hope, happiness, and healing to children, young people and families in need during this holiday season. Your support is crucial to making a difference in the lives of those who are facing significant difficulties in our communities.
Our Mission
We are dedicated to supporting families grappling with significant hardships and challenges. This campaign is about more than just new toys and gifts. It’s about instilling hope and resilience in the young lives we touch. Our goal is to reach 1,000 babies, children, and young people whose families are facing economic and other various challenges and adversities.
What We Need
- New toys and gifts that will spark imagination.
- Items that will help nurture loving connections.
- Gifts that will help to create lasting memories.
- Practical gifts for youth transitioning to independent living.
You can make a significant impact by contributing to our cause.
