Become an Adoptee
At Village of Hope, we understand that the holidays can be a stressful time for families in need. Our mission is to relieve that burden by supporting as many families in the Seacoast area as possible. If your family is in need, you can apply to our program. Once your application is approved, children are selected at random for assistance.
Become an Adopter
Our program wouldn't be possible without the generosity of our adopters. Since 2015, we have helped bring holiday joy to over 1,000 children through your support. This year, we hope to make a difference for even more families. Please consider becoming an adopter to brighten a child's holiday season.

I joined this awesome group a few years ago. My boyfriend's family told me about it when they found out I was crying about are 5 babies not having a Christmas and because of this group they had the best Christmas ever.

It all begins with this will be our third consecutive year adopting a seacoast family for Christmas. We first started when our twin boys were 3 years old. We wanted to instill in them Christmas magic in a way they could understand. Now with three children, it is important to us that we raise them with a sense of humility. We are very fortunate to be in a position to give back, even if that means we give ourselves a little less.

I am very thankful for Helping Seacoast Families. I just came to NH and was trying to figure stuff out. Christmas time was coming and I needed help. A friend suggested the group so I figured I would try. The first time, and all other times, I have been impressed and very thankful. I have used the group off and on for a few years and would highly recommend them. I have never had an adopter that was opinionated, they were always open to the kids needs and wants. I could give them the most basic gift idea, such as my son is this age and enjoys monkeys and cars. They have found the best things and unique things.

I came across this blessing and this organization through Facebook. I have struggled for years through holidays with my grandchildren since getting guardianship in 2014. I'm limited income, and do my best to provide. However, your organization has been such a blessing come the holidays. I couldn't be more thankful. It also takes some pressure off my mind. That's a great deal considering two of my sons are active addicts. I worry endlessly, every day. I try to hide the fact my grandchildren may lose their parents. I'm truly grateful for all of you, and all you do. God speed.
