Operation: Spread the Magic
About the Fundraiser
Hi, we're Lyndsey and my daughter! This holiday season we're going to a special family event for Gold Star families, and we want to make it a little more magical for the people we meet there.
We're raising money to buy theme park gift cards and hand them out as surprises to Gold Star widows and their kids. So many of these families give up so much, and extras like souvenirs, ears and hats, or a few more snacks and treats are hard to afford. We'd love to take that worry away for a day.
Progress: $380 of our $3,000 goal raised
About 13% of the way there. Thank you to everyone who's already helped!
Our Intentions
Why we're doing this: Gold Star families have lost a loved one in military service. We want to honor them and remind them that their sacrifice isn't forgotten. They're loved, and their community is behind them.
What your money buys: Theme park gift cards, handed out as surprises to Gold Star widows and their kids so they can pick out souvenirs, ears or hats, and extra food and treats.
Every dollar goes to these gifts. We aren't keeping any of the fundraiser money. It all goes to gift cards for these families.
How You Can Help
- Buy a bag of Hometown Hero coffee ($13). $5 from every bag goes straight to the fund. You cover shipping, so the full $5 makes it to the families.
- Donate directly: $5, $10, $25 or $50, with no shipping and no tax. 100% goes to the fund.
- Share this page with friends and family!
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us spread the magic.
Lyndsey & daughter
