Give Hope This Holiday Season with Harbor House

As the year comes to a close, we’re reflecting with deep gratitude on the compassion and generosity of our community. Each act of kindness—whether it’s a donation, a volunteered hour, or a thoughtful gift—helps bring safety, comfort, and hope to survivors of domestic and sexual violence in our community.

The holiday season is often a time of joy and togetherness, but for many families we serve, it can also be a time of uncertainty and hardship. You can make a difference. This year, we invite you to help create a season of hope and healing by getting involved in one of the following ways:

1. Become a Monthly Donor

A monthly gift ensures consistent support for survivors year-round. By joining our community of monthly donors, you’re helping sustain vital services; like safe shelter, counseling, advocacy, and education, that empower survivors to rebuild their lives. Every dollar helps strengthen our foundation of care and stability.

Make a monthly gift!

2. Join us on #GivingTuesday2025

Tuesday, December 2 is #GivingTuesday2025 and here at Harbor House, we’re inviting you to join us in creating safety, support, and hope for survivors of domestic and sexual violence.

Every act of kindness makes a difference, whether it’s a donation, sharing our message, or taking time to learn how you can help someone in need. Together, we can build a community where everyone feels safe, valued, and heard.

3. Purchase an Item from Our 2025 Holiday Gift List

Our Holiday Gift List makes giving easy and impactful! Each item on the list represents a real need, whether it’s warm winter clothing, household essentials, or special gifts for children spending the holidays in our safe shelter. Your purchase directly supports families as they take brave steps toward safety and healing.

4. Help a family through our Adopt a Family Program

If you or your group would like to take your giving even further, consider adopting a family directly! You’ll be paired with a family currently receiving support from Harbor House and provided with a list of their holiday wishes. Your generosity ensures that each family feels loved, seen, and supported during a time that can be especially difficult.

5. Volunteer with Our Adopt a Family Program

Looking for a meaningful way to give back this season? Volunteers in our Adopt a Family program help organize donations, wrap gifts, and bring holiday cheer to families receiving services through Harbor House. It’s a hands-on way to make the season brighter for those who need it most.

If you are interested in volunteering during the holiday season, reach out to our Volunteer and Event Manager, Lara!


No matter how you choose to give, your support helps us continue our mission of cultivating safety, equality, and respect for all. Together, we can make sure every survivor feels the warmth of the community this holiday season.
