Holiday Gift Drive 2026

Help make the holiday season brighter for foster youth at Joshua House in Lutz, Florida. Together, our community can bring comfort, joy, and a meaningful reminder that every child deserves to feel celebrated and cared for.

Help bring holiday joy to foster youth.

See Us Now is proud to participate in the 2026 Joshua House Holiday Gift Drive.

Joshua House is a therapeutic residential shelter in Lutz that provides a haven for abused, abandoned, and neglected children and teens. Its work reaches foster children living at Joshua House and hundreds of other foster and at-risk children throughout the Tampa Bay community.

This annual drive helps provide gifts not only during the holidays, but also for birthdays, special occasions, new arrivals, and everyday play throughout the year. Every contribution helps a child feel remembered.

Three simple steps.

A single thoughtful gift can help make the season more joyful for a foster child or teen.
