Holiday Gift Program
The holidays can be joyful, but they can also add financial pressure for families already balancing everyday expenses. The Action Center’s Holiday Gift Program helps families create a special holiday experience for their children by providing support with holiday gifts.
Whether a family needs a little extra help this season or faces more significant financial challenges, this program lets our community come together to make the holidays a little brighter for local children and families.
Give The Gift of Choice
This year, the Action Center’s Holiday Gift Program is giving families something meaningful: choice. Instead of our traditional sponsor-a-family model and physical gifts, we’re providing one gift card for each eligible child, giving parents and caregivers the flexibility to choose a gift that reflects their child’s interests, personality, and needs. This approach lets families share in the joy of choosing while creating a more flexible, responsive program that can serve more children in our community. Your support makes that choice possible. Donate a gift card through our Roonga platform and help give a family more than a holiday gift. Give them the freedom and joy of choosing something special for their child.

Receive Holiday Gifts
The Holiday Gift Program is changing this year to give families greater flexibility and choice. Eligible families will receive one gift card per child, allowing parents and caregivers to choose a gift that best fits their child’s interests and needs.
To participate, families must have received services from the Action Center within the past year and have children ages 0–17.
Register in person only from October 1–23, 2026, during regular service hours at the Action Center. Space is limited, and registration is first-come, first-served, so we encourage eligible families to register early. When you register, our team will help schedule your gift card pickup appointment for December 9 or 16, 2026, from 9 a.m.– 4:00 p.m.
At your pickup appointment, you will receive your gift cards and can select books and fun extras for your child from donations the Action Center has received.

We’re finalizing volunteer opportunities and will share more information soon, including available shifts and how to sign up. Check back here for updates and watch for announcements from the Action Center.
Thank you for helping us give families more than a gift this holiday season. Together, we can give them the gift of choice.
