Each year, the Sprit of Giving Holiday Drive provides holiday gifts to the most vulnerable children in Rhode Island.  Last year, we served 762 families and, in addition, 1,200 children in our classrooms each received a gift.

This year, the need is even greater. Children's Friend is looking to find sponsors for over 838 families as well as the 1,200 children we serve in our classrooms. It's our mission to provide for Rhode Island's youngest and most vulnerable children.

There are many ways to help support The Spirit of Giving Holiday Drive.  Individuals, church groups, businesses, and professional associations can come together as groups and sponsor a family or a group of families.  We can match you with a family profile and you can shop for their most basic needs... or you can make a cash or product donation to assist us in providing for our youngest and most vulnerable children.  Volunteer!  We are always looking for individuals and groups to assist us during the busy holiday season by sorting gifts and staffing our Holiday Drive Room!
