Easter Basket Passover Basket Drive

Easter Basket Passover Drive starts for 2026!

C RF

Each spring, case workers and child advocates identify between 400-500 children under age 12 who are among the most vulnerable being served , who are in need of spring gift baskets. The children who receive our Spring Gift Baskets have been referred to agencies because they have suffered from or may be at risk for abuse and neglect. As our agency works with parents, families and other caretakers to help them address these children’s needs, the Gift Baskets bring an unexpected bit of joy.

Because the children come from many different backgrounds and different faith traditions, we prepare baskets to bring a bit of springtime cheer. we encourage individuals and groups who would like to bring seasonal joy to these children to donate:

Pre-assembled baskets featuring candy, small toys, small stuffed animal, coloring books and crayons, toothbrushes and toothpaste, toiletries, etc., and bows; (when donating pre-assembled baskets, please affix a tag indicating suggested gender and age-appropriateness of included toys)

Supplies to assemble baskets, including: baskets, ribbon, grass, candy, small toys, coloring books and crayons, toothbrushes and toothpaste, toiletries, etc.

• Diapers & baby wipes
• Socks for infants & children
• Hygiene products
• Toothbrushes & toothpaste
• Deodorant
• Shampoo & conditioner
• Hair brushes
