Sponsor a Villages’ Child for the Holidays

Every year, The Villages conducts a holiday support campaign to collect gifts for the 1,400 children served each day throughout Indiana…and each year they are humbled by the generosity of their donors and community partners. In 2011, EVERY Villages’ child and their families received some form of holiday support: 

  • The Murphy family was adopted by a local church who shopped off their wish list and got each child in the family everything they asked for!
  • K’Shawna, who recently aged out of foster care and is living on her own, received a Walmart gift card so she could buy groceries and household items. 
  • Brandon’s name was selected from a Giving Tree hosted by a local business and he opened a Nintendo DS on Christmas morning!

Today, we are asking you to help us spread holiday cheer to The Villages’ children and their families. You can make someone’s Christmas brighter by shopping from one of The Villages’ children’s wish list … by providing gifts and a meal for one of our Kinship Care families … or by purchasing a gift card to give to a Villages’ youth who is living on his or her own and needs help buying groceries, household goods, and personal items.

If you are interested in providing holiday support to the hundreds of Villages’ children in need, please contact Brandi Freeman at bfreeman@villages.org or call 1-800-874-6880.  We have the opportunity NOW to let these special kids know that someone cherishes them … and to show these heroic families that they will continue to have the support they need to care for their children. In many cases, it truly takes the “whole village” to raise a child, and you are a very important part of the amazing team that willingly rises to the occasion!
