Would you like to help touch the lives of disaster survivors?

Every ornament we distribute was made by someone like you. You don’t have to be an artist or crafter, you just have to care.

Each year, disasters take everything from thousands of people. Their Christmas ornaments are just one of the many things they miss, but it’s often one of the losses they feel most deeply.

We are a non-profit organization dedicated to making Christmas just a little brighter for these survivors by sending them a package of handmade ornaments donated by people all across the USA and even the world. Our goal is to let them know they are remembered and loved.
