Help us make some holiday magic for local teens in foster care!

Have a great time while helping us kick off the annual holiday gift drive for over 300 Portland teens in foster care.

Every year, we hear how much it means to our teens to be able to ask for the things that they want, and to have a community that makes those wishes come true.

Last year, Howard's Heart delivered over $100,000 in holiday gifts to local teens in care. With your help, we can exceed that goal and make sure that every one of our teens feels seen and cared for this holiday season. 💙

When: Saturday, November 9th, 2024 from 1-5PM

Where: Howard’s Heart HQ
2nd floor of Lloyd Center on the west side

Donations will fund unclaimed wish lists.

Ready to show your support for teens in case?

Become a sponsor or donate a product or service to our silent auction to help each teen get an item from their holiday wish list.

Last year, we raised over $6k in our silent auction thanks to generous donations to local businesses. Popular donation ideas include wine, wine tastings, local experiences, hotel or vacation rentals, event tickets, and spa packages—but the only limits are your imagination!
