Holiday Gifts, School Supplies and Other Resources
Other Support
“Accepting Help is Its Own Kind of Strength.”
- Kiera Cass
No one person has the same needs. Our goal is to offer the type of support that meets you where you are today. We have thoughtful programs throughout the year, from reading books to holiday gifts.
Holiday Support
Helping you celebrate the season
When finances are tight, it isn't easy to plan for the holidays on top of all the day-to-day expenses. With the help of our generous community, we can provide a little holiday cheer.
Holiday Meals
We provide food to those facing hardship during the holiday season. We will supply you with all the essentials for a festive meal.
Pre-registration is required so please speak with your Case Manager.
Giving Tree
The Giving Tree program helps provide holiday gifts to youth (ages 0-17) and seniors (60+). Request cards are placed on trees throughout the local community.
Pre-registration is required, so please speak with your Case Manager.
Promoting Stability
Financial Counseling and Personal Growth
Thanks to a partnership with local banking representatives, we offer financial counseling to clients during our Market Hours. The Pikes Peak Library District is also on hand at various times throughout the month to provide resources, promote literacy, and foster imagination. Check with your Case Manager to schedule a visit.
Investing in Children
Making Learning Fun!
Books for Kids
Through our collaboration with Covered Treasures Bookstore, we ensure that low-income children have access to high-quality reading materials, fostering literacy development. Children enrolled in the Books for Kids Program receive one age-appropriate book each month for one year.
Back2School Giveaway
With the support of our community, we distribute backpacks full of school supplies to our client families. Distribution happens in July so that children are all set for the school year. If you have a student needing some extra supplies, please contact your Case Manager.
