Honoring Kenzi at 18: Help Us Bring Joy to 18,000 Children This Holiday Season

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=""]As we step into fall, Kenzi’s Causes is preparing for one of the most important times of our year: our Toy Shop program. This year carries a special weight for us—Kenzi would have been 18 years old. To honor her memory and the incredible impact she continues to inspire, we’ve set a powerful goal: to bring holiday joy to 18,000 children across Colorado.

The Need Is Greater Than Ever

We are hearing from families every day who are struggling. The need this year is as high—if not higher—than what we saw during the COVID pandemic. Parents are making impossible choices between rent, groceries, and holiday gifts. Without our Toy Shop, thousands of children would go without presents this holiday season. We can’t let that happen. And we can’t do it without you.

How You Can Help

Every gift, every toy, every dollar makes a difference. Together, we can show these children that they are seen, loved, and not forgotten. Here are ways you can join us in meeting this urgent need:
  •  Purchase a new toy and drop it off at one of our Toy Drop-Off Locations across Colorado
  •  Make a donation of $5 or more on our website
  •  Donate via Venmo (under Charities → Kenzi’s Causes)
  •  Shop our Amazon Wishlist here

Why Your Support Matters

Our community has always stepped up when children needed us most. This is one of those times. Your generosity will not just put a toy under a tree—it will bring comfort, dignity, and holiday magic to families who are facing some of their hardest days. This year, more than ever, your support is how we honor Kenzi’s life and legacy. Together, let’s ensure 18,000 children feel her light this holiday season.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

About the Author

Kenzi's Causes

In 2007, Jessica Bachus started Dolls for Daughters®, after her daughter Kenzi was stillborn. She created an annual holiday Toy Drive for Colorado children who would not otherwise have toys during the holidays. Today, Kenzi's Causes collects more than 100,000 toys, stocking stuffers, books, toothbrush/toothpaste kits, backpacks, lunch boxes and other items to change the lives of children in Colorado through our programs. At this annual event, families are also provided with community resources to help improve their lives and the lives of their children.
