The holiday season is here, and it’s a time for warmth, togetherness, and giving back. If you’re unable to shop from our holiday registry, you can still make a big impact by donating—our team will do the shopping for you! We’re dedicated to supporting families in our community who could use extra love and assistance. Join us in making the season brighter by helping us provide essential items and holiday cheer to kids and families in need.

Every dollar donated goes directly towards meeting these essential needs. By giving to HOPE 2026, you’re not only fulfilling wishes—you’re restoring hope and showing our community that they are loved and valued. Here are some ideas around how giving impacts each child:

$30 – Covers one child’s toy or clothing item.
$50 – Covers one child’s food support for Thanksgiving Break
$75 – Covers a special gift for the parent(s)
$125 – Covers a winter coat, hat, gloves, and other basics to keep a child warm or essential clothing for the child
$150 – Covers one child’s holiday wishlist, bringing joy and creating lasting memories.
$200 – Provides a family memory making experience and stocking stuffers for a family
$600 – Covers everything for a child this holiday season, including their wishlist items, clothing needs, and their food support during Holiday Breaks

No matter the amount, every donation makes a powerful impact. Together, we can reach more families and ensure no child goes without the essentials and holiday joys they deserve.

Here are two other ways you can give:

• Through a donor-advised fund: Just designate your gift to E91 Church – Good Neighbor HOPE.
• By check: Make checks payable to East 91st Street Christian Church and include Good Neighbor HOPE in the memo line.

Every gift directly fuels relational mentoring, stability, and long-term hope for our Good Neighbor families. Thank you for being a church that loves our community so well.
