The Heart of Our Mission

Welcome to our most heartwarming campaign of the year! At the Boswell Family Charitable Foundation, we believe every child deserves to feel the magic and love of the holiday season. Our annual Give a Child a Christmas program is a direct expression of our Christ-centered mission to spread joy and hope, ensuring that children in our communities have cherished gifts to open. Through your generosity, we are able to show vulnerable young people that they are not forgotten—they are loved.

Our Goal and Your Impact

This year marks our 5th annual drive. We aim to sponsor six children and three families, ensuring each one experiences the hope and joy of the holiday season. In previous years, this campaign has already brought joy to 40 children and raised over $10,000, and we are ready to build on that success.

How the Program Works

We partner with various organizations across the community to identify children in need. Our process is designed to be simple and meaningful:

  1. Wishlists & Sponsorships: We create personalized Wishlists for each child, allowing donors to directly purchase gifts they want and need.
  2. Gifts of Joy: You, our community of donors and supporters, purchase the gifts or make a financial contribution.
  3. The Christmas Party: We host a special celebration where all the gifts are delivered, bringing their holiday wishes to life.

Ways You Can Get Involved

Donate Gifts or Funds:

  • Sponsor a Child: Directly purchase gifts from a child’s wish list.
  • Make an Overall Contribution: Your financial gift helps us purchase any remaining gifts and ensure every child is celebrated.
  • Become a Matching Donor: Maximize community support by matching donations.
