We are proudly partnering with the Make a Change Foundation and Hand in Hand Kids of Everett to brighten the holidays of children transitioning into the foster care system. When children are removed from their home in a crisis situation, there may be no immediate place for them to stay. Hand in Hand’s Safe Place shelter provides a short term haven for these children. It is a welcoming place for them to rest, play and be cared after while more permanent accommodations are made. Together we can make a difference in the lives of children in need.

These gifts will be given directly to a foster child under the age of 18. If you would like to make a Hand in Hand foster child’s holiday wish come true, please bring your
