Cohoes Holiday Hope is a program devoted to helping those in need give their children a memorable holiday season. Through the Holiday Hope program parents/guardians are able to earn “holiday bucks” through attending a parent teacher conference, volunteering at a school event, attending PTA/PTO meetings, visiting the library and obtaining a library card, obtaining their child’s yearly physical and more. Please see the attachments for a full list of opportunities!
These “holiday bucks” then allow you to shop for FREE at our Holiday Hope Store. Everything in the store is brand new and we often have the year’s most sought after toys and gifts! Stay tuned for this year’s shopping dates and times.
This information sheet explains how to apply for this program, as well as how to keep track of all of your “holiday bucks.”
If you have any questions please reach out to your child’s school social worker or Raychel Marcil, director of MTSS at 518-237-0100 ext. 2320 or rmarcil@cohoes.org.
