Holiday Wish Program
At CornerHouse, we work with some families who are struggling to meet their basic needs, including food, housing, and safety. You can make a difference by participating in our Family Holiday Wish program, a powerful way to support these families and help relieve their burdens during the holiday season.
Your generosity can provide much-needed gifts, food, and essentials, bringing joy and hope to those in need.
What Sponsors Provide:
A gift valued at $25-$50 for each child in the family
A $50 gas gift card for the caregivers
A $50 grocery gift card for the caregivers
A roll of wrapping paper or gift bags
Optional: Cold weather clothing (jackets/boots/snow pants) for children in need
How Does It Work?
Once you sign up, we'll pair you with a family in need. You can choose to sponsor a small, mid-sized, or large family! You'll receive each child's wish list and age for some gift inspiration. For confidentiality, neither you nor the family will know each other, but trust us – the impact is heartfelt.

Many of our clients arrive at CornerHouse during moments of crisis. The last thing they should worry about is how to stay warm. Your donations of NEW winter gear—coats, gloves, hats, scarves, boots—can provide comfort and dignity when it's needed most.
Donations for all ages are welcome!
We encourage donations in gender-neutral colors and patterns to ensure every child feels comfortable and included.
Timeline: The coat drive begins now and extends through the winter months.
Drop-Off: December 7th, 8th, & 10th, or email to coordinate alternative date.
Corporate Donors: Host a Winter Clothing Drive. This winter, your company can make a powerful impact—one coat, one hat, one pair of boots at a time. By hosting a Winter Clothing Drive, you'll help ensure that the children and families served by CornerHouse stay warm, safe, and cared for during Minnesota's coldest months.
