The holidays can be especially stressful for children in foster care, as this is when they miss their parents and siblings the most. Many children in the dependency system are placed with relatives, neighbors, or friends who may not have the financial means to provide special gifts during the holiday season. To help brighten their holidays, Hero To A Child, Family Support Services and Suncoast Voices for Children organize an annual gift-giving program to ensure that every child receives a gift.

This year we anticipate serving more than 2000 children through our Light The Season Program.
