Help West Michigan Families

Family Promise would love your help in supporting families experiencing homelessness this holiday season! Family Promise hold a “Christmas Store” each year at which the families serve can shop for gifts for their kids and loved ones to ensure they have a Christmas that’s merry and bright!
Family Promise find this model gives more dignity to the families receiving support, empowering parents to feel like the heroes of their kids’ Christmas. To do this, Family Promise rely on help from local families, businesses, churches, and schools to collect all sorts of items to make the day a success! These items are attached to the flyer!
These are just ideas for each category, you’re welcome to have fun with it and get other items too!
Gifts would need to be unwrapped so families know what they’re selecting from, but you’d be welcome to collect wrapping paper itself to contribute to a family’s Christmas fun. Family Promise find that wrapping their kids gifts is an experience parents love to do themselves!
