How It Works

  1. Identification of Families: Each winter, our school counselors confidentially identify Sacajawea families who may need extra support during the holidays.​
  2. Wish List Creation: Counselors work with these families to create wish lists that include both essential items and special gifts for each family member.​
  3. Community Involvement: The PTG reaches out to our generous community members, who volunteer to "adopt" a family or contribute through donations.​
  4. Gift Wrapping: Sac Parent and even alumni come in to wrap the gifts, fostering a spirit of giving and unity among students.​
  5. Distribution: School counselors discreetly distribute the wrapped gifts to the families in time for the holidays, ensuring confidentiality.
