Hanukkah Charitable Gift Card and Toy Drive

About this event

Friday 11/20 – Thursday 12/31

Sponsored by Brotherhood and Sisterhood

Help Brighten a Child’s Holiday!

This Hanukkah, join us in sharing kindness and practicing tzedakah by supporting children and families in need.

Donate a toy

Place a new, unwrapped children’s toy in the collection boxes in the TE lobby and entrances. Toys will support Birthday Wishes , which brings birthday celebrations to children experiencing homelessness. Consider donating a toy in place of one night of your family’s Hanukkah gifts.

Give a family the gift of choice

Support Jewish Family & Children’s Service’s 2026 Holiday Gift Card Drive with a cash donation in any amount. JF&CS will convert your contribution into Target gift cards for families. Your gift allows parents to choose presents their children will love. Parents receive $50 gift cards for each child in their family. If you prefer to purchase physical Target gift cards, please send them in $50 increments to: JF&CS, Attn Sarah Solomon, 1430 Main St Waltham MA 02451. Please make gift card donations by November 20 so they reach families before Hanukkah begins on December 4. Donate today!

Thank you for sharing the light this Hanukkah!
