Gift Cards are tremendously versatile forms of support that HopeTree is always happy to receive. They can provide activities and meals during community outings, purchase clothing, cover fuel expenses… the list goes on and on.

Most importantly, they give those in our care the opportunity to exert a small amount of control over their lives at a time when their entire existence seems to be a whirlwind of chaos.

That is a gift far more valuable than the cash value of the card.

While some programs specifically ask for gift cards, please know that each program at HopeTree can benefit from gift cards redeemable at restaurants, department stores, movie theaters, Amazon, Walmart, Target, and other regional or national merchants.
