Holiday Gift Drive

While many events are cancelled this year because of pandemic restrictions, we will not let that dampen our joy and motivation to help the most needy in our community!  As you enjoy this holiday season, join your fellow United Way donor network members in contributing to the YLS and RISE Holiday Gift Drive.  

This year, toy and basic need essential donations will benefit children through Diocesan Migrant and Refugee Services as well as Center Against Sexual and Family Violence, two agencies supported through the United Way Community Impact Fund.

To participate, simply purchase an item on the wishlist, and have it mailed to the delivery address on file. Your contribution will brighten the day of a young El Pasoan this holiday season!  Thank you for your commitment and happy holidays!

In response to COVID-19, YLS and sister donor network, RISE, joined forces to host donation. To mitigate the spread of COVID-19, members supported nonprofit emergency shelters by collecting activities and in-home educational supplies to keep the minds of participants sharp. Items included puzzles, books, board games and more.
