Sponsor Guide

Thank you for adopting a family this Christmas. This guide walks you through choosing, packing, labeling, and delivering your gifts.

What types of gifts should I give?

All gifts must be new. Spend $75-$100 per child as the total value of all gifts — one large or several smaller gifts, the same amount per child in each family.
Include a helmet with any bicycle, scooter, skateboard, or skates (child height is provided for bike sizing).
Family gifts such as grocery store gift cards are appreciated.
Recommended tablets: Amazon Fire 7 (about $60) or Fire HD 8 (about $100).
Include gift receipts for clothing and shoes.
Do not wrap gifts, but you may include wrapping paper and tape with the donation.

Each family has a four-digit family number (for example, 2038). Each child has a six-digit number (for example, 2038-01).
Label every gift, including bikes and helmets, with the child’s six-digit number.
Place all gifts for one family together in one or more large black garbage bags labeled with the family number.
Do not mix families or bring incomplete bags.
Cards or notes are welcome — please use first names only.
Attach gift receipts for clothing and shoes to the appropriate item.

Activate all gift cards and include the purchase receipt if available.
Place each gift card in a letter-size envelope labeled with the family number, child number, card type, and dollar value.
Do not place envelopes inside the gift bags — hand them directly to a Hope for the Holidays team member when delivering.

Preferred delivery dates are December 1-8, 2026; hours are Monday-Friday, 9:30 a.m.-12 p.m. and 1:30-4 p.m..
Deliver to MentorSports Gymnasium, 6924 Commercial Dr., Morrow, GA 30260 — look for the signs and enter through the “Donors” door.
A team member records your bags, bikes, and gift cards at check-in; ask for a receipt for tax purposes if you would like one.
Bikes may be delivered unassembled in boxes — label both bike and helmet.
