Give the Gift of Hope

Kidz2Leaders is a local ministry that exists to provide stability, opportunity, and a Christian community to children with incarcerated parents.

Every year we invite the families in our program to Hope4Christmas, a celebration of Christ's birth, where they are served a meal, play games and enjoy connection, spend time in worship, and hear a message of hope.

Because parental incarceration leaves instability and financial hardship in its wake, we aim to provide personalized gifts for each child at Hope4Christmas as well as gas and grocery gift cards to bless their families during the holidays.

GIVE

Shop from a Child's Wishlist

We've asked families to share items that their children want and need, so we can provide one of each! All wishlist gifts are valued at $40.00/gift.

Sign up to provide gifts and we'll send you specific requests to shop for, along with directions for drop off or shipping.

Donate toward gift cards

Help our families pay for gas and groceries this Christmas season! We provide each family with $100 in dedicated gift cards to help with financial hardship.

When you make your donation, don't forget to designate your gift as "H4C Gift Cards" in the comment section.
