A High School Service Project

Believe With Me began

Believe With Me began in 2015 as a high school service project after the founder saw a social media post from a Gold Star widow asking for help for the holidays. When she discovered that there was no other charity that provided Christmas gifts for children of fallen service members, she gathered her kids, some local high school students, and friends to help.

The service project would provide help for numerous Gold Star widows that Christmas but also served to teach the next generation about the high cost of their freedoms and opportunities. That first year Believe With Me sent Christmas gifts to 168 Gold Star children nationwide while working out of the founder's living room.

It has since grown beyond what anyone could have imagined, and with the help and support of students, friends, and thousands of #GratefulAmerican, Believe With Me now provides Christmas gifts for more than 3,000 children of fallen service members nationwide!
