Letters of Hope *NEW*: A letter of hope is a powerful way to connect with people in care through uplifting words of encouragement and inspiration. You can use stationary, note cards, or plain lined paper. It's the thoughtful content that counts! Click here for instructions.
Kindness Jars: Raise self-esteem and spread smiles and encouragement to children and adults at Abbott House. Decorate plastic mason jars with paint, stickers, ribbon or other embellishments, and fill the jars with folded slips of paper that convey happy thoughts and positive affirmations. Kindness matters!

Happy Birthday Party Boxes: Make a difference in the life of a child or adult by helping them celebrate their birthday. Decorate boxes with celebration items, party favors, candles, small novelty items, gift cards, candy and hand-written cards to brighten their day. Help struggling families create lasting memories!

Dignity Suitcases: We want children who come into care and continue on their journeys beyond Abbott House to travel with dignity. Help us give every child a proper travel bag filled with a blanket, a journal, a mini hygiene kit, and a small stuffed animal so they can feel safe and secure as they adjust to their new environments.
