Porchlight in person
Some days we pack baskets. Some nights we pull up chairs. Find a volunteer shift, bring a group, or see what we’ve been up to.

If a child has ever marched you down a toy aisle to show you which dinosaur, you know why we ask families to write the list. A neighbor does the shopping. Porchlight gets the gifts home quietly. The grown-ups do the wrapping and decide whose name goes on the tag.
Parents and caregivers: fill out the private family request and one wish list per child or teen. Tell us how we can safely reach you. We’ll let you know whether we can match your family with a shopper.
Apply for Christmas helpComplete the request online and it will come straight to our team—no printing or handoff needed. Shoppers see a coded list, not names or contact details.
Take a whole list, split one with friends, or pick up that last gift. Tell us what you’re comfortable spending. We’ll confirm your match before you shop and arrange a time for you to bring back the unwrapped gifts.
Adopt a familyUse the Adopt a Family page, or text ADOPT to 601-540-2765 if you need a human to help you sort it out.
