PS I Love You partners with Spartanburg & Cherokee County DSS to provide Christmas presents for all children in foster care.
Ways to get involved this Christmas
Sponsorships
Christmas 2024, we partnered with Spartanburg County DSS to sponsor 220 children in foster care for Christmas. Over 140 families were blessed by the generosity of our community. In addition to Spartanburg County, we are also excited to partner with Cherokee County again this year!
We will begin matching wishlists with Sponsors in September. We ask for a commitment of $200-250 per child sponsored. The deadline for gift drop-off will be Nov 11-13th.

Collections
Would your church, workplace, or organization like to make a meaningful impact in the lives of children in foster care this Christmas? Partnering with PS I Love You to host a collection drive is a powerful and practical way to get involved. We’ll provide everything you need—a collection bin, a list of our most-needed items, and simple instructions—making it easy for your group to participate. Just imagine your lobby filling up with toys and fun items for children throughout the season!
Hosting a drive is not only a great way to rally your community around a local cause, but it also allows individuals to give in a tangible way. Every donated item goes directly to stocking our Resource Center for the new year, which ensures children in foster care receive the essentials they need with dignity and love—during the holidays and beyond!
Giving Tree
Help shine a light on the needs of children in foster care this Christmas by creating a meaningful and eye-catching Christmas tree display at your church, business, or organization! We’ve made it easy for you to inspire generosity in your community—everything you need is ready to go.
No need to coordinate, collect, or deliver—each item is shipped directly to PS I Love You Ministries, making it effortless for your organization and impactful for the kids we serve!
Here’s how to get started:
-
Print the collection sign and place it front and center on your tree to share the heart behind the mission.
-
Print as many ornaments as you’d like— each ornament features a QR code that links directly to a shopping list of our most-requested items for children in foster care, making it easy for anyone to choose and give exactly what’s needed. Items are shipped directly to the ministry
-
Cut, hole punch, and hang the ornaments with ribbon, filling your tree with opportunities for others to make a tangible impact.
Every ornament taken is a step toward restoring dignity, hope, and care to a child who needs it most. Your display can spark generosity and help us fill our Resource Center with the essential items these children deserve.
Pro tip: Use cardstock for a sturdy, polished look!
Campaign Gifts
Your year-end gift—of any amount—directly impacts the lives of children in foster care through the ministry of PS I Love You. Too often, children enter foster homes with only the clothes on their backs and none of the essentials every child deserves. Your generosity ensures our Resource Center stays fully stocked with clothing, hygiene products, school supplies, and comforting items that restore dignity and offer hope—not just during the holidays, but all year long.
PS I Love You receives no government funding, and this annual campaign is vital to sustaining our programs and outreach. Because of compassionate donors like you, we are able to continue meeting real needs and showing every child that they are seen, valued, and deeply loved.
