Every family that we sponsor costs $550. It may seem like a lot, but that money covers presents for all family members, a Christmas tree plus decorations, a $50 Meijer gift card for their Christmas meal, and a Bible.

Maybe your family decides to practice sacrificial giving, and sponsors a family instead of buying each other presents (that’s how Secret Families was started!). Perhaps you choose to make Secret Families your holiday donation of choice, with your own funds or together with friends or neighbors.

Organize a fundraising event for Secret Families! Get the neighborhood together for a bake sale. Have a game night with entry fees and homemade prizes – or host a cornhole tournament! Bosses, have year-round casual wear days for $2 a day, or match employee donations.

Volunteer for one of our teams on the day of the event! Sign up to join shopping teams, wrapping teams, present delivery teams, or tree delivery teams.

One of the best ways to help Secret Families reach as many deserving families as we possibly can is to spread the word about our mission.  If you or a friend has served with Secret Families, share your story with everyone you can! The more people know about our mission, the easier it will be to help families in need.

Reach out to your pastor about having us come speak at your church, or your small group leader about letting us share our story at your weekly meeting.

If you’re a part of a local service group or a sorority or fraternity, we would love to tell your members how they can help. If your networking or business group wants to know more about getting involved with a local charity, we can answer all your questions.
