Thanksgiving Gift Card Donations

Thanksgiving

This year the vast majority of the Holiday Aid recipients will receive a gift card from a local supermarket to purchase the food items necessary for a holiday meal. We are seeking monetary donations from the community.

Holiday Gift Cards

We are seeking monetary donations or $25 gift cards to Amazon, Target or Walmart. Gift Cards will be distributed to families, so that they can purchase clothing and/or toys for their children. The deadline for gift card donations is Friday, December 15, 2023.

 

They can be mailed to: The Department of Human Services, Attn: Holiday Aid Program, 101 Field Point Road, Greenwich, CT 06830.

Holiday Aid

Adopt a Family

Every child deserves to experience the joy of opening presents during the holidays. The Adopt a Family for the Holidays program provides gifts for children and families of the Greenwich Department of Human Services (GDHS). Celebrate the holiday season by directly helping GDHS families experiencing financial challenges.

 

How the Adopt a Family for the Holidays Program works:

  • GDHS collects necessary information to determine eligibility for participation in the program.

  • Once vetted for support, a qualifying family will complete a Holiday Aid Wish List form.

  • Once selected, adopters can view the family’s contact information and wish lists. Adopters are asked to coordinate directly with their family regarding any questions, including questions about shipping or delivery.

 

If you are interested in Adopting a Family for the Holidays or want to learn more about the program, please contact Jamie Annunziato at (203) 622-3715 or jamie.annunziato@greenwichct.org.
