The children we serve face increasing adversity and health, social, emotional, educational, and financial challenges deepened by the after-effects of the pandemic and economic conditions. With your help, we’ll make their holidays special and give them something to celebrate.
In 2024, due to continuing needs in the community, each child who participates in our in-person shopping spree will receive $150 to purchase gifts for their family members. A DCF member will shop with each child to select personalized gifts for their family members then wrap the gifts with the child. Each child will listen, learn to budget, and develop a shopping list which focuses on other people in their family. After the shopping is done, our members will present the children with a special gift of their own. And at the end of the spree, Santa will arrive on his helicopter-sleigh and distribute gifts from DCF to each child.
Many of you are committed to worthwhile charities and events during the holiday season. However, if you’d like to open your heart to assist us with this most special of all our events, your donations would be greatly appreciated. Every donation we receive gets us closer to the goal of ensuring that these kids have a magical holiday season.
If you would like to donate to this event and provide a meaningful and gratifying holiday event for these children, please complete the donation information below. Donations at $1,000 or more receive a Colorado Child Care Contribution Tax Credit of 50% of the donation (in addition to the federal charitable deduction). Learn more about the Tax Credit HERE.
