The holidays are almost here, and we’re ready to spread some BIG joy! 🎁
Set To Thrive is gearing up for our annual Gift A Thrive Bag Event, and this year, we're dreaming BIG! Our goal? To make this our biggest, brightest, and most joy-filled holiday season yet!
When it comes to showing up for local children experiencing foster care and homelessness, our community never disappoints. ❤️ And we can't wait to see what we can accomplish together this year!
Whether you're an individual, a family, a group of friends, or a business, there are so many ways to get involved. Every Thrive Bag, gift, and donation helps remind a child that they are seen, valued, and cared for. Now THAT is what the holiday spirit is all about!
🎄 THREE WAYS TO SPREAD HOLIDAY CHEER!
✨ OPTION 1: Individuals & Families — Adopt a Thrive Bag!
Make the holidays extra special for a child! Request a gift tag featuring a child's age and gender. We'll provide their clothing sizes, and you'll create a personalized Thrive Bag filled with brand-new essentials, thoughtful gifts, and plenty of holiday magic!
✨ OPTION 2: Businesses & Corporate Partners — Rally Your Team!
Bring the spirit of giving right into your workplace! We'll provide a beautifully decorated holiday tree filled with gift tags — or a detailed wish list — featuring each child's age, sizes, and clothing needs. It's a fun, meaningful way to bring your team together while making a BIG difference in our community!
✨ OPTION 3: Everyone — Give the Gift of a Thrive Bag!
Short on time but still want to make an impact? No problem! Make a direct donation to Set To Thrive, and we'll do the shopping, packing, and delivering for you! 100% of your contribution goes directly toward providing brand-new essentials to local children.

❤️ A LITTLE ABOUT THE MISSION BEHIND THE MAGIC
Since 2020, Set To Thrive has partnered with social service agencies and school districts throughout Alameda and Contra Costa Counties to support children experiencing foster care and homelessness.
There are more than 5,500 children experiencing homelessness and 2,400 children in foster care in our local area. Since launching in 2021, this incredible community's generosity has helped us provide essential items to more than 5,500 children!
And we're just getting started!
Let's fill some bags, spread some smiles, and create a little holiday magic!
