Family-to-Family’s
Compassionate Holiday Gift Alternatives

Looking for a creative, socially conscious gift alternative this holiday season? Give “the gift of giving.” We hope you’ll consider one of Family-to-Family’s holiday gift alternatives…. compassionate and meaningful gifts to give a friend, colleague or family member this holiday season.

Victory Garden | Hunger Hurts | Birthday in a Box

Victory Garden Kit – A gift in the name of a friend, colleague or family member that keeps on giving.

There is a Chinese proverb, “Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” The same can be said for fruits, vegetables and eggs.

With your donated funds, Family-to-Family will provide a Victory Garden Kit for one family in need living in one of three F-to-F sponsored communities. The Victory Garden Kit contains 10 egg-laying chickens, vegetable and fruit seeds for two 5’x8’ planting beds, a tool set, fertilizer and chicken feed…providing a family with the means to grow and produce fresh produce.
