Holiday Heroes is an annual campaign at Youth Villages that provides holiday gifts and winter essentials to young people and families in our care. In 2023, we received 370 wish list requests, 60% more in submissions than in 2022.
Holiday Heroes is the most magical time of the year at Youth Villages. From the beginning of October through the end of December, we work to ensure every child and young adult in our programs gets to experience joy during the holiday season.
