Donate Goods or Raffle Items

Help us say thank you to the people who show up every day for Wisconsin’s children.

Not able to give financially? Donations of goods and services are a simple, meaningful way to support Wisconsin’s Head Start community. We’re especially looking for individually packaged snacks and food items for attendee goody bags, plus raffle items and services we can offer as prizes.

Donors are thanked on a printed card in every goody bag, and raffle items are labeled with the donor’s name.

The people behind Head Start

Head Start staff do some of the most important work in our communities. Every day, educators, family service professionals, program directors, and support staff care for children from birth to age five and stand beside the families who rely on them. They do this work with enormous heart, often with limited resources and stretched teams.

Each February, more than 300 of them gather for the WHSA Annual Training Conference to learn, connect, and recharge. This year is our 25th anniversary, and we want it to feel like a celebration. It’s a chance to give something back to a group of people who give so much.

How Your Donation Helps

Goody bags that say “we see you.” A thoughtful snack or treat waiting for every attendee is a small gesture that means a lot after a long day of learning.
Raffle prizes that add joy. Gift baskets, gift cards, products, and services give attendees something to look forward to and celebrate.
A conference that feels welcoming. Your generosity helps us create an experience where caring, hardworking people feel appreciated.

Your name goes with it

Every donor is thanked on a printed card in every attendee’s goody bag, and raffle items are labeled with your organization’s name. That means your products and your support are seen by Head Start leaders and educators from across Wisconsin.

Donations of any size make a difference, whether it’s cases of granola bars or a gift basket for the raffle.
