Our Mission

Share–A–Gift is an all-volunteer, secular annual holiday project that provides toys, books, and bicycles for children of low-income families in the area of Colorado’s Boulder Valley School District. Share–A–Gift is a 501(c)(3) under IRS rules and has operated as a non-profit, all-volunteer organization since 1972.   Each year, Share–A–Gift helps connect over 600 families representing over 1500 girls and boys, birth to age 14, with community donations.

Share–A–Gift collects toys at sites around the city of Boulder and in areas of eastern Boulder County starting Thanksgiving week through the middle of December.  Volunteers set up and organize a “Toy Shop” in a donated warehouse space where toys are distributed to families-in-need.  On a single day, all eligible parents are able to come and “shop” – selecting toys for their children with the help of hundreds of volunteer assistants.

To be successful each holiday season, Share–A–Gift needs thousands of new and gently-used toys, books, games, puzzles, and bikes for infants, children and adolescents up to age 14. Share–A–Gift allows Boulder families and children the opportunity to meaningfully participate in gift-sharing by donating new or gently-used toys, books, and bikes for families who will appreciate getting these gifts.
