In order to better serve our families, Hope & the Holidays and The Salvation Army Bozeman have teamed up starting this year.
At the time of toy pick up, we will be requiring a form of identification for parents (driver’s license or birth certificate) as well as identification for the child(ren) (a social security card or birth certificate or insurance card) being served. If the child(ren) live in two homes, the primary custodian will be the one who can receive gifts for the child(ren). This will enable more families to be served.
We will start signups on Facebook, our website, and Santa’s hot-line on Monday, November 26th. Please apply only one time.
Thank you and Happy Holidays.

Hope & The Holidays has teamed up with the American Legion in Downtown Bozeman for BINGO once a month through the summer. June 20th, July 25th and August 15th. $1 a game other than the final blackout game, $2. All cash prizes. Lots of fun to raise money to buy toys for children in and around the Gallatin Valley.
Tomaso’s on Main, serving inside the American Legion, offers a full menu from 4:30 to 8:30, so grab dinner while you’re playing BINGO.
Please help Hope & The Holidays meet our goal of raising $3,300 during Give BIG Gallatin Valley right now through Friday, May 4th at 6pm.
Did you know that in 2017 we helped provided Christmas gifts to 1,613 kids in 595 families and gave out 338 food baskets. Even though we get toys, books and games donated to us at Christmas time, we purchase a lot of toys with money we raise throughout the year. Our goal of $3,300 is about 10% of what we spent on toys last year.
If you’re able, we would greatly appreciate a donation. Just $5 gets a book into the hands of a kid at Christmas. $150 provides a family with two kids a complete Christmas package from us including the food basket. Visit https://www.givebiggv.org/organizations/hope-the-holidays to donate to a child’s Christmas experience.
Throughout the 24 hour period of Give BIG, Thursday, May 3rd starting at 6pm to Friday, May 4th at 6pm, your donation has opportunity to have an extra $20 or $750 added to it. The prizes are awarded for various different things like the donation made closest to sunrise, the 2018 donation made, and the small nonprofit with the most unique donors during the 24 hour period. To check out the whole list of prizes visit https://www.givebiggv.org/prizes.
And don’t forget, we are having a Christmas Party at Giggles: Toys & More in the Gallatin Valley Mall on Friday afternoon from 3-6pm. Start your weekend off right with some cookies and fun.
