Purchasing gifts requested on the wishlist online and having them shipped to the designated DCF Office.

The average wishlist ranges in value between $75 – $100 each.

DCF social workers are working hard to gather wish lists from every child and teen they support!

Once those are collected, your DCF Holiday Gatekeeper (the staff member coordinating the drive at their office) will match you with a child or teen.

You can expect to receive an email with your assigned wish list(s) by early November.

It depends! Reach out to your assigned Holiday Gatekeeper and ask them what the particular preference is of their office.

Your Holiday Gatekeeper will provide you with your selected DCF Office delivery address.

Please include the name of the child and their social worker on the gift tag.

Please ensure that all gifts have been delivered to your assigned DCF Office by December 16th so that social workers have plenty of time to deliver the gifts!
