OhioGuidestone Holiday Shops, Give Joy All Year Long!
Holiday Shops at OhioGuidestone are an annual tradition and a powerful way to make a lasting impact in the lives of children, adults, and families across Ohio. Each year, generous individuals, businesses, and community groups come together to stock our shops with gifts and items that bring joy and hope to those we serve.
Why Donate in July?
While the holidays may still be months away, the magic starts now.
Yes, it’s hot outside—but at OhioGuidestone, we’re already dreaming of snowflakes and smiles that come from receiving the perfect gift. By planning for our holiday shops in the summer, we can make sure that every child has a toy, every teen feels seen, and every parent or caregiver receives something that makes them feel special.
OhioGuidestone’s holiday shops are located in Cleveland, Columbus, and Toledo. We hope to make 2025 our biggest and brightest season yet, and we need your help to make it happen.
What are Holiday Shops?
Our holiday shops are unique spaces filled with donated gifts for all ages. During December, OhioGuidestone staff visit these shops to hand-pick items for their clients based on each person’s needs and preferences. Whether it’s a teen working through challenges or a parent focused on healing, our holiday shop donations allow us to provide personalized care during a time that can be especially difficult for those facing hardships.
How You Can Help
It’s never too early to join the spirit of giving. Here are just a few ways you can support our 2025 shops:
- Make a financial gift to help us fill the shops with high-need items
- Purchase items from our online wish list (coming soon!)
- Share our mission by spreading the word on social media
No matter the season, it’s always the right time to give. Your generosity helps stock our holiday shops with items that last well beyond the holiday season.
