Give the Gift of Holiday Giving

The holiday season is a time for joy and generosity, and last year, you made something extraordinary happen. When the number of children needing holiday support in our community doubled, you and other generous donors came together to ensure that every child received a gift. Thanks to you, families facing tough times felt the magic of the season and the comfort of knowing their community cared.

This year, the need remains just as urgent. Rising costs and ongoing challenges mean more families are reaching out to Family Service of Rhode Island (FSRI) for help. And once again, we’re asking you to make it possible to bring joy, hope, and empowerment to children and families who need it most.

Here’s how you can give the gift of hope this holiday season:

Your contribution helps us bring light and joy to families who might otherwise go without:

Last year, your generosity helped fulfill the wishes of every child who came to us for support. This year, we know that the need will be just as great, and we need your help to make this happen again.

You can be the reason children in Rhode Island wake up with smiles on their faces, knowing they are loved and cared for by their community. Together, we can continue to make the holidays magical for those who need it most.

Thank you for being the heart of this effort. Because of you, brighter days are possible for the families we serve.
