Happy Holidays
Make the Season Bright for Everstand Youth and Families

Holiday Gift Sponsorship
Every child at Everstand thoughtfully creates a holiday wish list, totaling approximately $150. When you sponsor a wish list, your contribution allows us to purchase exactly what a child has requested, giving them a sense of joy and belonging. You can donate online or mail checks to:
Everstand
Attention: Advancement Office
3300 Gaither Road
Baltimore, MD 21244
Please write "Holiday Drive" in the memo line. -
Holiday Gift Shopping
For those who love the joy of shopping, we can provide a child’s or living unit’s specific wish list! But hurry—this is one of our most popular programs, and wish lists are claimed quickly.
Request a wish list by emailing Amber Doherty, Volunteer and Community Engagement Coordinator, at adoherty@everstand.org no later than Friday, November 16, 2026. All gifts must be delivered to Everstand by Friday, December 11, 2026. Full shopping and drop-off instructions will be provided when you receive your list.

Everstand Holiday Store
At our annual Holiday Store, youth shop for gifts to give their loved ones—creating moments of connection, joy, and pride. This event allows our youth to experience the joy of giving, even if they don’t live with their families full-time. The store also supplements youth wish lists.
You can shop our Amazon Wish List, and your purchases will be sent directly to our team for distribution!
At Everstand, we believe that every child deserves moments of joy, connection, and belonging, especially during the holiday season. Throughout the year, we provide enriching experiences for the youth in our care, but it’s the kindness of supporters like YOU that makes the holidays truly magical. Your generosity creates lasting memories and reminds our youth and families that they are not alone.
There are many meaningful ways to spread cheer this holiday season, whether through monetary gifts, sponsoring wish lists, or shopping for special items. However you choose to give, know that your support will bring hope, joy, and connection to a child who needs it most.
If you have any questions or want to become a sponsoring partner, please contact:

Together, we can make hearts fuller and homes brighter this holiday season, one act of kindness at a time. Thank you for helping us enrich communities, one family at a time!
