Dear Friends,
Every December, something extraordinary happens at HOPE for Prisoners — families separated by incarceration are reunited to share a Christmas they’ll never forget.
On December 8–9, 2025, we will once again transform the Linda and Christopher Smith Campus at Opportunity Village into a setting that feels like home. Imagine family in a warm living room setting with a glowing Christmas tree, festive décor, the smell of a holiday meal, and children running into the arms of their moms and dads — many for the first time in years.
Each participating parent has earned this opportunity through good-standing behavior and is nearing release within the next 18 months. For these men and women, it’s a moment of hope — a reminder of what they’re working toward. For their children, it’s a chance to reconnect, to laugh, and to simply be a family again.
Throughout the evening, families will enjoy a Christmas message and uplifting entertainment designed to inspire joy and reflection. Each will have a dedicated host to guide them through the experience, ensuring every moment feels personal and meaningful. Before they leave, families will take home gifts — a lasting reminder of the love and generosity shared that night.
We invite you to help make this year’s “101 Christmases” possible. Your support makes these reunions, meals, and gifts a reality — restoring hope and dignity for families who need it most this holiday season.
You can help today by:
- Donating here
- Mailing your gift to:
333 N. Rancho Dr., 2nd Floor, Las Vegas, NV 89106
Thank you for believing in second chances and for helping make Christmas a time of restoration and joy.
