The Spence-Chapin Holiday Angels Program provides clothing, essentials, and gifts to families in need. Not your typical toy drive, Holiday Angels provides the opportunity for donor families to be matched with a recipient family and sent a wish list of necessities and items that family has prioritized. Participants can also choose to make a financial contribution to the program instead of being matched. Whichever option you choose, you will bring joy to families in need this holiday season! The program continues to expand its impact and is now serving families in New York, New Jersey, AND Arizona!
The matching period for the 2025 Holiday Season has now closed. Thank you to everyone who signed up to be a Holiday Angel this year! You can still support families in need this holiday season and throughout the year by making a financial contribution, which helps provide clothing and baby supplies to expectant and birth mothers and their babies who we serve all year round. Thank you!
对于目前正在通过 Spence-Chapin 的领养计划之一办理领养手续并希望参加节日天使活动的家庭，请注意，我们可以为您匹配一个家庭，您可以为其购买节日礼物，但在领养完全完成之前无法接受财务捐助。如果您有任何疑问，请联系我们的活动经理 Toni Schweizer，地址为 [email protected]。 谢谢你！
The Holiday Angels program supports families who are in need of extra assistance during the holiday season. Some of the beneficiary families are former or current clients of Spence-Chapin who may be struggling financially and for whom providing winter essentials and especially holiday gifts for their children may be particularly challenging. We also partner with social service and health organizations throughout New York and New Jersey who operate in communities where Spence-Chapin also has a presence through our satellite offices, to support their clients during the holiday season. These may be families who are currently residing in shelters and are facing housing insecurity, intimate partner violence, and financial hardship. By offering these gifts, we aim to bring joy and relief to as many families as we can during the holiday season.
Holiday Angels is a great opportunity to spread joy as an individual, with your family, in your workplace or with your child’s school! Many of our Holiday Angels who are families enjoy the annual tradition of shopping all together for the items on their beneficiary families’ wish list and having each family member help in selecting items they feel the beneficiary family will appreciate. We also have colleagues who may be in the same department at their place of work, on the same team, or just work friends, who sign up to support one or more families as a group. 整个公司 can also sign up and employees can choose to form a group or be matched with a beneficiary family individually. Schools are also welcome to participate, and each classroom can sign up to support one or more beneficiary families and be asked to bring in items based off of the families’ wish lists. However you choose to be a Holiday Angel, your participation will bring joy to those in need during the holiday season!
Holiday Angels fill out our form and select the size and number of families they want to support, and are then sent some information to help them pick out gifts for each child, including their age, size, and interests, like Spiderman or the color pink. There may also be additional items the family has identified as needing urgently, like winter garments, shoes, or crib sheets. Holiday Angels can then choose to go out and shop in stores and drop off the items to Spence-Chapin, shop online and have the items shipped to us, or make a donation for the amount they would like to contribute to the family, and Spence-Chapin can purchase the gifts to be delivered. Whichever path is chosen, Spence-Chapin volunteers will wrap all of the gifts, and staff will deliver them to each family!
Each year, our Holiday Angels Champions make the season brighter by volunteering their time and contributing generous donations to provide gifts for families in need.
Last year, with the help of our partner Goldman Sachs, volunteers wrapped over 850 gifts, ensuring they were ready to be distributed to the community.
This year, thanks to the generous support of Brothers Supply Corporation, the entire Arizona program has been sponsored—providing gifts for more than 30 children.

We are proud to be able to partner with such wonderful organizations around New York, New Jersey and Arizona for Holiday Angels and throughout the year to provide comprehensive support services to the women, children, and families who need them. Thank you!
