Gift of Joy! 2025

We are hoping to raise $45,000. So far we have raised $175. If you would like to contribute to the Gifts of Joy project, click on the donate button below to make your tax deductible contribution:

Thanks to the extreme generosity of the Ghaisar family, they will be donating the care packages for the shelter this year. For the past several years, they have supported this important project in honor of their son, Bijan, who was taken from us way too early.

This year, your Gifts of Joy donation will go to support food‑insecure families. We are proud to partner with Yellow Boomerang to feed 4,000 families; each family will receive a holiday meal kit to feed six people. With the current government shutdown stretching safety‑net programs and creating gaps in assistance, many households are suddenly at greater risk of missing meals this season. Your donation will provide immediate relief when public supports are constrained.

We thank you in advance for helping improve our community... one heartbeat at a time.
