Our Holiday Gifts program brings a little more holiday joy for families and helps reduce some of the financial burden of the shopping season. This program is for families with children 0-18 years of age.
Due to the large increase in participation of this program, the 2024 Holiday Gifts program will have a new requirement: in order to be eligible for the 2024 program, you must have accessed food services in the last 12 months. This includes services like market shopping, Summer Lunch, or Lunch for the Break.*
Please note that we require address verification documents resubmitted with your registration every year.
*Announced as of January 2023
Thank you for making this program possible!
Through your financial donations, donations of gift cards, and drives to collect items needed, the holidays are brighter for children and families facing financial hardship. Your donation makes it possible to provide $50 gift cards for each child in a family, which can bring a child's specific wish to life and give parents or guardians the joy of selecting the perfect gift for each of their children.
For gift card donations, we ask that cards be in $50 increments and be from the retailers our shoppers use most: Amazon, Fred Meyer, and Target. We need gift card donations by November 22, thank you!
Or you can mail or deliver checks and gift card donations to:
Issaquah Food & Clothing Bank
Attn: Holiday Gift program
179 1st Avenue SE
Issaquah, WA 98027
If sending a check, please write "Holiday Gift program" in the memo area. Thank you!
Rally your neighbors, workplace, church, friends, etc. to help collect gift cards, cash donations, or other items to make this holiday special for youth in our community. Contact TriciaP@issaquahfoodbank.org to learn more.
Each school in the Issaquah School District has its own drive to raise funds for Holiday Gifts. Join in!
We are unable to add any more families to our waitlist.
