Give Joy During the Holiday Season

News
Posted on December 22, 2016

  Imagine that it is the holiday season, you are a child and it is the first time that you are away from home for a long period of time. How would  you feel? Perhaps, you are in a new environment and it is quite strange to you. You haven’t made any friends yet; you might be feeling a bit lonely. The holidays can be a lonely time for many of the boys at Bonnie Brae. We do our best to bring the holiday spirit to each of them through activities and celebrations on our campus. Besides holiday celebrations on campus, we are looking to our generous benefactors to “adopt” a Bonnie Brae boy or cottage. Doing so will provide joy, smiles, and special memories to at-risk boys. The benefits of providing gifts to children in need are tremendous.
  • Holiday spirit. When thinking about the holidays, what do you remember most from your childhood? The music, the food, family gathered together, and presents. Providing a donation for Bonnie Brae boys to receive presents helps them experience the same holiday joy you remembered from your childhood.
  • Improved psychological health. Giving without expecting anything in return helps improve your psychological health. Knowing that your gift impacted a child’s life and made him smile would provide a wonderful feeling.
  • Positive vibes. Doing something positive for someone else often brings positivity into your own life. Providing for holiday gifts for boys in need is a kind and generous thing to do during the holiday season.
A $125 donation provides gifts for one boy, $500 lets three boys receive gifts, and $1,000 shares the holiday spirit with a cottage of 7-10 boys. Please consider giving joy to the Bonnie Brae boys this holiday season. Bonnie Brae is a safe haven for boys and young men in crisis. We are a fully accredited and nationally recognized Residential Treatment Center and a safe place  for boys to heal, learn, and grow. We have helped over 10,000 boys and families since our founding in 1916. Please contact us today to learn how you can make a positive difference in a young man’s life.
