Every year, we need to raise at least $20,000 to cover Thanksgiving grocery gift cards, teen gift cards, and adult-only households for holiday help. Even a small donation makes a difference!
We expect that there will be over 700 households in 20874 referred into the Holiday Giving Project for Thanksgiving help. That number will grow in December... They range from single, disabled adults to families with many children, and come from the broad array of backgrounds that make Germantown special. Caseworkers, school guidance counselors, congregations and area nonprofit agencies make the referrals into the HGP database.
While some families are sponsored by congregations, businesses and individuals, most are not. We gratefully receive thousands of toys through Toys for Tots Montgomery County. There are hundreds of adult-only households and families with older teens who we strive to serve with gift cards. Any donation helps!
Will you be a holiday hero this year? Please donate here, or contact Germantown HELP at info.gtownhelp@gmail.com. THANK YOU!
Love to all our sponsors, from single family-to-family matches, to congregations and businesses helping a bunch of families, we love you all immensely.
