The Interfaith Outreach Holiday Gift Card Program is unique because it honors the faith traditions most practiced by our program participants. Individuals and families choose one of the following to participate in each year. Community members provide donations to make these programs possible! Families of all sizes and ages need support.
December Holiday PROGRAM
The December Holiday Program provides client families in need of holiday gift assistance with $50 Target gift cards which are provided by generous donors. Purchase as many gift cards as you would like to support anywhere from one person to multiple families.
- Early September: Donor online registration opens. You decide how many individuals you would like to provide a $50 Target gift card for. Your generous donations will go to families, seniors, and/or individuals in our community.
- December 9th: Donors drop off unwrapped $50 Target gift cards curbside at Interfaith Outreach.
Missed donor registration? Last-minute financial support benefits the almost 200 additional individuals we will see in the weeks leading up to the holidays.
EID PROGRAM
The Eid program allows Muslim families to attend community celebrations, events and activities together to honor their traditions while providing financial support for gift giving. You can help ensure all families have a special Eid celebration by donating Target gift cards of $25 increments or by contributing financial support. Interfaith will then provide families with assistance with clothing and food purchases or entry fees at special venues in the community (e.g. Valleyfair).
Interfaith Outreach helps our families connect with Jewish Family and Children’s Services (JFCS) to receive gifts and holiday ritual items through referrals to their Hag Sameach program.
