Support Fostering Joy 2025
Fostering Joy is only possible because of the generosity of our community.
Whether you’re an individual, family, or business, there’s a meaningful way for you to help create joy this holiday season.
How You Can Foster Joy
Sponsor a Child
Help cover gifts for one or more children. Sponsorships are valued at $75–$150 per child, based on their personalized wish list. Perfect for individuals, families, or businesses who want to directly impact children’s holidays.
There are two ways you can become a child sponsor:
Shop a Child’s Wish List
Choose this option if you would like to hand-pick gifts for a child (either online or in-person). You will be provided a child’s wish list that includes their first name, wishes, and interestes. From there, you will be able to gather items and return them to our Resource Center and our team will pass the gifts along to the child.
Fund a Child’s Wish List
Choose this option want to support a child but would prefer for us to do the shopping. We will put your monetary donation toward fulfilling a child’s wish list.
Send a Gift with Amazon
Order directly from a child’s Amazon wishlist and have items shipped to Fostering Connections or to the child’s home. A simple way to give while ensuring each child receives exactly what they’ve asked for.
Sponsor the Event
Support Fostering Joy as a whole by helping cover event expenses and ensuring every family has a smooth, celebratory experience. Event sponsorships include recognition opportunities and are open to both individuals and businesses.
Volunteer
Fostering Joy is only possible because of the incredible support of our community. We have volunteer opportunities available Monday–Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Join us and step into the role of one of Santa’s elves as you help prepare brand-new holiday items for the children we serve.
Host a Drive
Rally your office, church, or friend group to collect new items like toys, clothing, or hygiene supplies. Drives multiply impact and create community around giving.
