Join the National Day of Service this year on Martin Luther King Day (January 20th)… by organizing an “event” around one of Family-to-Family’s community service projects.
A few ideas:

  • Host a “Stuffed Shirt” event with friends or co-workers and provide personal care items for the homeless.
  • Host a Birthday Box event and provide a “birthday in a box” for children in need.
  • Host a “Fill Me Up” Canned Food Drive for your neighborhood food pantry… we’ll link you up!
  • Or gather your friends and neighbors and refresh your wardrobe through Swap for a Cause… and help F-to-F at the same time.

In an effort to make giving easy and “out-of-the-box,” we’ve created “Food on the Move!” – a simple way for people moving from one home to another to “share their bounty” on moving day!  Families cleaning out kitchen cupboards as they pack up to move can fill a shopping bag with unwanted nonperishable food items and hang it on their front doorknob, and their realtor will pick it up for a local food pantry.  Simple giving. Realtors and movers… Learn more here.

Please join our efforts to make the holidays bright for families struggling to get by this winter season….the Family-to-Family way!  Here are a few hands-on ways you and your family can help.

Another option….let us do the shopping for you, by packing up and sending a “BOX OF HOLIDAY CHEER” to a family in need.
Or consider one of our COMPASSIONATE GIFT ALTERNATIVES made in the name of a friend, colleague or loved one.

We’re proud and excited to announce that Family-to-Family founder and executive director Pam Koner has been awarded a Daily Points of Light award in October for her decade-long volunteer effort to help struggling American families.  Points of Light awards, established by President George H.W.
