Thank you for your interest in supporting the families at Gateway Domestic Violence Center.
One of the ways we support the children in our care is by making sure they feel celebrated and loved—especially on birthdays, holidays, and other special milestones. We collect new toys to be used as gifts for these occasions, as well as for achievement rewards and moments when a little extra joy is needed.
What makes this especially meaningful is how we involve the mothers. Rather than giving gifts directly from Gateway, we allow moms to “shop” from our donated toy supply at no cost. This empowers them to choose something special for their child and give it as a personal gift—preserving the joy of giving and strengthening their connection during a difficult time.
Whether big or small, every new toy donation helps a mother feel proud and a child feel seen, loved, and valued.
Thank you for helping us bring moments of happiness and normalcy to families rebuilding their lives.
