See how it works

Open a numbered ornament

Every ornament with a number is one household. It opens onto the people waiting, their ages, and a holiday wish list.

Gold means adopted

When a family is adopted, their ornament turns gold and shows a check. A pale gold ornament that still shows its number is reserved while a card payment is confirmed.

Shop, or let the Elves shop

After you adopt, decide whether you will buy the gifts or ask the HOPEful Elves to shop. Either way, the joy gets home.

Our purpose

Hope grows when we grow it together.

The H.O.P.E. Foundation helps individuals and families facing economic and life challenges find stability through community outreach, resources, and meaningful support. At Christmas, that care becomes a gift, a meal, and a family who knows someone chose them.
