Holidays That Shine for Everyone

Adopt a Resident & YWCA Holiday Market:
Transforming the Season Through the Power of Giving

This year there are TWO unique ways to get involved in meaningful holiday giving:

1. Adopt a Resident: Share the magic by donating gifts for a resident to unwrap. Use the sign-up form below to be matched with a resident, receive their wish list, and be given all the details for gift drop-off or delivery. To ensure timely arrival, all gifts must be delivered by December 16.

2. YWCA Holiday Market: This special event is an opportunity for residents at the YWCA Family Center and Women’s Residency to shop for gifts for their loved ones—or even for themselves—without the burden of cost. Click the buttons below to view the YWCA Holiday Market wishlist or the full list of eligible items. These items will be sent directly to YWCA Columbus, making it simple and impactful for you to bring a smile to someone’s holiday!

By joining us through either of these unique giving opportunities, you’ll help make this season even more special for those we serve.

Donate Our Most-Needed Items

In an emergency shelter for families, new needs arise daily. To support our families and residents, we put together Amazon Wish Lists with our
