Helping Hands for the Holidays is an IFCS enrichment program that provides children aged newborn to 10 years old with holiday gifts through the generosity of community sponsors and donors.
Applications were accepted October 1-21, 2022.
We use a priority number system that tracks how many times a family has used this program in the past. A first-time client who has never participated in Helping Hands for the Holidays will be at the top of the priority list. Due to the priority number system and depending on how many sponsors are available to sponsor children, we cannot guarantee that every family will be sponsored.
If you cannot apply online, please contact IFCS to complete your registration by phone: 303-789-0501, extension 108.
If your child(ren) is sponsored for this program you will receive a postcard in the mail the week of November 28, 2022. On this postcard will be information on what day/time you can pick up. Emails with this information will also go out to sponsored families.
If you have not received your postcard by December 5, 2022, contact IFCS at 303-789-0501, extension 108.
