Christmas Baskets
HOW YOU CAN HELP
Every year, with help from people just like you, we create personalized Christmas Baskets for widows to say,
“We see you. You are not forgotten.”​
​
These baskets are curated with love, filled with items from wish lists we receive from widows both near and far, and through nominations from friends and family. Some of these women are young mothers with school-aged children; others are empty-nesters or grandmothers and great-grandmothers. Despite their differences, they all share the often painful experience of spending this season without their husbands.
​
Join us to love these women during this sacred time of year—a season
that can feel especially tender for those grieving the loss of their husbands.
​​
If you’d like to give a financial donation rather than purchasing a specific gift, you can sponsor a basket directly below—every dollar counts, and no amount is too small.
