United Way of Hunterdon County has been
supporting our community for more than
thirty years to ensure that every individual
has the opportunity to thrive. Holiday
Hands provides holiday gifts to thousands of
Hunterdon County low to moderate income
families, elderly residents, and individuals
with special needs. To do this, we reach out to
these individuals in our community and ask
them what they most need and wish for. We
then create shopping lists that are available
through our website for local purchasing, or
via wish lists on Amazon for online shoppers.
Generic and store-based gift cards are also
accepted, with our more frequent requests coming
from retailers such as Walmart, ShopRite, Kohl's,
Burlington, and Marshalls (with a preference
for $25 denominations). We also accept and
encourage donations of new and unwrapped toys
and household goods to add to our holiday store.
Beginning November 1, you can find links
to our clients' wish lists on our website at:
www.UWHunterdon.org/holiday-hands.
(The deadline to drop off items is Friday, December
1, 2023.) Items can be dropped off at the United
Way of Hunterdon County Volunteer Center (20
Fulper Road, Flemington, NJ 08822) from Monday
through Friday between 9:00 am to 3:00 pm or
by appointment. A monetary donation (www.
uwhunterdon.org/donate) allows us to fill the gaps
as needed and shop on your behalf.
