Share hope and joy with youth experiencing homelessness this holiday season!

The holidays can be difficult for the young people we support. Gifts received during the holidays allow youth to celebrate and feel valued while on their journey to independence and a bright future. It means the world to young people to receive gifts that best suit them and their children provided by caring community members.

Get Started

Let us know how many youth/children you will support by November 25, 2024 using our sign-up form. Please note: We request $100-$150 is spent per youth/child; please keep this in mind when choosing how many youth/children you would like to support.
After you sign-up to participate, we will match you with a youth/child and send you your youth/child wish list/s with labeling and drop off instructions.
Schedule a drop off day and time (December 5, 6, or 9) for the gifts you've purchased at one of our Saint Paul LSS locations. Location addresses and drop off instructions will be sent to you after you submit the sign-up form. Please leave gifts unwrapped for an employee wrapping party.

Give a gift from our general needs list which supports youth who use our services during the holidays and throughout the year. Please note: There is no minimum gift amount, so you can choose to donate as much or as little as you want.
Review our list of general needs gifts and complete our sign-up form. Be sure to check the "I/we will donate general needs gifts" box or "I/we will donate gift cards" box.
