Donate a gift card.

When families lose their homes to wildfire, what they need most is flexibility—a way to choose what’s needed most in the moment. That’s why Project Spark sends gift cards alongside handwritten letters of hope to its recipients.



Project Spark offers two ways to give:

  • Send a Gift Card to a Family in Need

    Your gift provides immediate support—helping families buy what they need most, when they need it.

    How to Donate:
    Go to Target’s eGift Card page

Donations are verified and secure.

When families lose their homes to wildfire, what they need most is flexibility—a way to choose what’s needed most in the moment. That’s why Project Spark sends gift cards alongside handwritten letters of hope.

We work directly with verified school administrations in areas affected by wildfire. Schools help identify families in need and privately distribute cards within their communities, ensuring every donation is safe, personal, and respectful of privacy.

Because schools already know which families have been impacted, we never ask for names or personal information—only how many households need support. This simple, trusted process allows us to send the right number of letters and gift cards while protecting each family’s privacy.

Support that adapts

When someone loses their home to wildfire, they’re often overwhelmed with well-intentioned donations—bags of clothes, toys, or kitchenware. But in those first weeks, what they really need is flexibility.

That’s where gift cards come in. They offer choice. And they meet people where they are.

Every gift card is paired with a handwritten letter from a past survivor and sent to someone facing loss. Together, they become something more.

A message of care. A sign of support. A step forward. Gift cards let survivors choose what they need, when they need it
