Share some Holiday Magic

The holiday season is a time of joyous celebrations filled with food, friends, and presents for millions — but not so for many Native Americans. You can help us meet their urgent needs by giving practical gifts for Christmas. Remembering Native American children and Elders will have a lasting impact that goes far beyond the holidays… just as our work throughout the year touches the lives of so many time and time again. Reservation programs look to us all year to lessen the hardships and improve quality of life on the reservations, and they are counting on us to do the same for the holidays. The most important thing we provide is hope.

It’s important that Native Americans be remembered, along with the rest of America. Please consider giving a gift to help spread Holiday cheer, and help us distribute needed items such as Christmas stockings, weatherization boxes, and food.

Once you've made your purchase, you'll be given the option of sending a Holiday eCard to loved ones to let them know a lasting gift has been made in their honor.

Gift products are presented for donation purposes only and are not available for individual sale. We apologize but only one honorary Holiday eCard is permitted per transaction. If you have more than one person to honor, please make separate donations.

Show You Care with a Christmas Care Package
Any Elder receiving this special Christmas Care package will know they are cared for. We distribute thousands of Christmas Care packages to Elders each year. We fill a large bag with items that are frequently requested during the year. The contents include personal care items, a first aid kit, a smoke detector, blankets, a hat, gloves, socks, tea and cocoa and some non-perishable food.* Elders always appreciate receiving these items for the holiday, especially since they are so difficult to acquire on the reservation.

Help Provide Nutritious Food
Elders use the Elder Nutrition Centers as a place to find a hot meal and to socialize. The food, of course, is important, but the benefits of keeping an Elder's mind active and engaged is priceless. Homebound elders are generally able to have their meal delivered to their homes from an ENC as well. $25 will help provide almost 227 servings, so your gift will go a long way.

Celebrate Community with a Holiday Meal
Celebrating the holidays together makes the season special. Many families who cannot afford to have special meals at home during the holidays are able to attend one of the community meals we sponsor. We provide the food and community volunteers prepare, serve and clean up after the meal. The food includes items like turkey, potatoes, cranberry sauce, and stuffing. * Everyone enjoys attending these meals to experience the strong sense of community and holiday spirit that is always present.
