Project Joy Christmas Program
Bringing Joy to Children in Care
The holidays can be a difficult time for children in foster, adoptive, and kinship homes. Project Joy exists to make sure every child feels seen, celebrated, and cared for during a season that should be filled with warmth and joy.
Why It Matters
Foster families often carry additional financial and emotional responsibilities, especially during the holidays. Project Joy helps ease that burden while creating meaningful, memorable experiences for the children they serve.
- Ensures children receive thoughtful, age-appropriate gifts
- Supports foster, adoptive, and relative caregivers
- Creates a sense of belonging and celebration for every child
How it Works
Project Joy is powered by a network of community partners, donors, and volunteers who come together each year to make the holidays brighter.
- New toys, gifts, and monetary donations are collected
- Community members have the opportunity to “adopt” children or families for the season
- Special focus is placed on providing gifts for foster teens, who are often underserved
Get Involved
Project Joy thrives because of generous individuals and organizations who choose to make a difference.
- Donate new, unwrapped gifts
- Sponsor a child or family
- Contribute financially to support program needs
- Volunteer your time during the holiday season
A simple act of generosity can create a lasting memory for a child. Project Joy is more than a gift program. It is a reminder to every child in care that they are valued, supported, and not alone.
