Holiday Sponsorship

Holiday Family Sponsorship
Each year we have a special request for holiday assistance to solicit funds and holiday gifts for PS-S participants who have little or no outside family support. We have more families in our program this year, so our need is greater than ever!

As in the past, this upcoming holiday season can be greatly enhanced for many hard working, single parent families through the generous assistance of community members.

There are a variety of ways in which you can help:

  • Gift Card Sponsorship: Do you want to share your resources but don’t have the time or desire to do the shopping? You can give our single moms and single dads the opportunity to shop for their own children by providing gift cards from a local store (i.e. Target, Wal-mart). Allowing participants to experience the joy of picking out items for her or his children will mean so much to each of them. We have many participants who would love this option. In addition, you can still purchase one or more gifts for the mom or dad if you desire.

  • Traditional Family Sponsorship: PS-S staff matches these sponsors with a family and you shop for the gifts for the kids and the mom or dad. If you prefer this option we will match you with a specific family, provide you with their gift request list, and you can purchase the gifts and bring them to our drop off/ pick up locations. If you prefer to sponsor children of certain ages or gender, the sooner you send the sponsorship form back to me, the better. We request that all donated items be new.

  • Discretionary Monetary Donations: These donations can either be designated to purchase the gift cards mentioned above or to support our annual family holiday party which approximately 200 children attend. You may designate if you have a preference or allow us to use the funds where they are most needed.

  • Book and Game Donations for Holiday Party: We can accept new books to give to the children ages birth to eleven who attend our Holiday Family Party. Books must be non-gender specific and non-religious in nature. Deadline for book donation is December 1st. For a list of requested games, please contact Connie.

If you are interested in contributing your resources for any of the above purposes, please contact Connie at 635-5902 or by e-mail at connie@ps-s.org.
