Ways You Can Help Make This Christmas Unforgettable for the Kids in Our Care

  1. Give a Gift Card
    Gift cards are a big hit with the boys and girls in our care, allowing them to shop with staff for the perfect gift. Popular choices include:

    • Old Navy
    • Scheels
    • Barnes & Noble
    • REI
    • Walmart
    • GameStop
    • Missoula Downtown Association
  2. Bring a Gift
    With nearly 200 children in our care, duplication is never a concern. Select a gift from the list below and bring it to the luncheon unwrapped or in a gift bag.

  3. Can’t Attend?
    You can still send some holiday magic!

  4. Sponsor a Christmas Adventure!
    Help fund memorable winter outings for our group homes (follow the links below to learn more):

    • Ski Day at Discovery Ski Area: Discovery’s diverse slopes create an inclusive and joyful experience for our kids and staff.
    • Fairmont Hot Springs: A favorite activity that helps kids relax, connect, and enjoy the unique Montana winter.
    • Silver Mountain Water Park: Many of our kids have never been to a water park. Watching them laugh, play, and just be kids is an incredible gift.
    • Movie Day: When the coldest day of winter strikes, a cozy matinee with popcorn and hot chocolate is the perfect remedy.
    • Ice Skating at Glacier Ice Rink: Skating to music, sipping hot chocolate, and spending time together is a special treat.
    • Get Air Trampoline Park: Nothing beats bouncing, laughing, and letting loose. It’s always a hit with our kids!
    • Elkhorn Hot Springs: Hot springs offer a wholesome, restorative activity, helping our kids connect with themselves and each other in a fun and relaxing way.

Remember – You can bring a friend!
