Holiday Friends is Beyond Housing’s annual gift-giving program that aims to brighten the season for 1,000 children by ensuring they wake up to something under the tree. 

For the kids, the joy is in the presents they unwrap at the holidays. For their parents and caregivers, the joy comes from being able to provide those presents without an extra financial burden during tough times and seeing the priceless smiles on their children’s faces. 

Your generosity—whether you purchase gifts, donate funds, or volunteer to help in other ways is what makes this program such a bright spot for families in our neighborhoods.


You can fill out a form to buy gifts for a child (or several children) within a family. You will receive an email with details about the child(ren), including their age, clothing and shoe sizes, and a wish list. Please plan to spend a minimum of $100 per child on gifts.

You can also make a donation toward Holiday Friends and our elves will do the shopping for you!

If you are interested in donating specific items, please check out our Amazon wish list.
