Christmas for Fosters

01/27/2026

💖 Calling all hype girls, gift givers, and Amazon cart heroes 💖

We’re getting ready for It’s a Girl Thing at the end of February, and we want every foster teen girl who walks through the door to leave feeling seen, celebrated, and just a little bit spoiled.

One of the ways we do that is with Selfie Bags. Think cozy, fun, confidence-boosting goodies that say, “You matter, and you’re worth caring for.”

We need help creating one for every girl attending, and this is where you come in.

You can shop directly from our Amazon list and have items shipped straight to us. Easy, impactful, and zero guesswork.

✨ Sheet masks
✨ Lip and eye masks
✨ Hair ties, nail polish, hand cream
✨ All the small things that add up to big joy

If you’ve ever wanted to love on a foster teen in a tangible way, this is it.

Thank you for helping us remind these girls that they are worthy of care, confidence, and joy. Pink bows and all. 💕

We provide curated Christmas boxes for local foster children across Florida every year! Join us by giving to this year‘s program! The average cost for each sponsorship for our organization is around $300 a child (when we say curated, we mean super personalized!). Use the link in bio to give!

We celebrate the fact that every child in our program has officially been sponsored in Northeast, Northwest and West Central Florida! 🎉🎉🎉

However, we’ve seen a trend the last eight years that we can expect roughly 5% of our sponsors to not drop off for a variety of reasons including unforeseen circumstances. This year we are anticipating around 18 kids in West Central FL alone and we won’t fully know until 2 days before our foster families pick up their gifts.

So even though everyone is sponsored, we still need to raise critical capital to allow us to fulfill the Christmas wishes of the 5%.

Here are two ways that you can help:

1. Give online - https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/donation-form/christmas-for-fosters—2025

2. Shop a wish list - https://www.givejoycollective.com/wishlists

Bonus! We also have a lot of Amazon wish lists for kiddos you can shop too! https://www.givejoycollective.com/amazon

YOU can be a game changer in our program this year! Please help us get the message out and hit the share button. 🫶🏽
