Join us in spreading joy this holiday season!
For many Whatcom families struggling to provide basic needs for their children, these upcoming months are only made harder by the desire to bring the same sense of excitement and spirit other children look forward to during the Holiday Season. Parents, already struggling to make ends meet, will be faced with the difficult question of how to create a memorable holiday experience for their families.
We invite you to join us in spreading joy and providing needed support to the families we serve through one of the following meaningful modes of giving:
Adopt A Family
By adopting a family or contributing toward a wishlist, you are not only supplying presents, but also providing an opportunity for parents to focus on creating fun holiday memories with their children. To view family wishlists and read the gift giving guidelines, visit:
- Website and program go live November 5th!
- Gifts will be due back to Lydia Place on December 1st-3rd.
Monthly Doonor
Your monthly contribution to Lydia Place is essential to enabling us to say "yes" to families in crisis and building sustainable systems to support them for the long haul. For as little as $5/month, you can help shelter a family from the cold this winter.
