Ways you can get involved

Toy Drive/ Clothing Collection

This year we are providing a list of most requested new toys as a guide to help with your shopping. Toys are targeted for children newborn through age 18. Click here to see a list of recommended toys.

We are also collecting new pajamas, socks, hats and gloves for kids of all ages. New (or almost like new) coats are welcome as well!

Donated items can either be dropped off at the OGB office or we are happy to come pick them up.

Blessing Bag

Each family visiting the Holiday Store receives a Blessing Bag filled with much needed food and toiletry items- all in time for the holiday break.

Click here for more information and to see a list of requested items. OGB provides the bags and are happy to drop them off to you. Filled Blessing Bags can either be dropped off at the OGB office or St. Barnabas Church (instructions are on the attached info flyer).

Amazon Smile Wish List

To make shopping easier, OGB has developed an Amazon Smile "Wish List". Simply click here to order your donation. All purchases will be sent directly to OGB.

You will receive an email or text from the OGB office confirming your donation was received.

Sponsor-a-Family

We are excited to offer “Sponsor-a- Family for the Holidays”. We will provide the family's wish list to you, and then you and your group take care of the rest! We expect the cost per sponsored child to be approximately $100. If you are interested in sponsoring a local family (or two), please contact Sheila for more information ([email protected]).
