Wish Lists

Thank you for your interest in furthering our mission! There are a few ways in which you can help impact the lives of youth in our care: 

Holiday Needs

They say the holidays are a time of giving, and we hope that you remember the children at Bellewood & Brooklawn in your plans this year. Many of our youth have never experienced a “traditional” Christmas and will open presents on Christmas morning in our cottages for the first time. We appreciate your help fulfilling their wishlist requests! We serve ages 6-18 in our residential campuses and all ages in our other programs. Please remember that Santa always brings NEW gifts!

If you’d prefer to shop online, we also have an Amazon wishlist of our most needed holiday items. Browse and buy items on Amazon today here: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/6L5OXQNJ0STR/ref=nav_wishlist_lists_2. 

If you’d like to help make the holidays brighter for the children and families that we care for, please reach out to Santa’s Hotline at (502) 260-8018 or email donations@bellewoodandbrooklawn.org for more information. 

Thank you!

Cottage Housewarming

We welcome new residents daily to our cottages, young individuals seeking a safe and nurturing environment. We could use your help in turning these cottages into homes! We currently need all housewarming items, from kitchenware & appliances to any housewares, including bedding, bathroom linens/supplies, living room staples, and more. If you’d like to help us fill our cottage’s comforts of home, view our wishlist here. Thank you!

Calming Boxes Wishlist

At Bellewood & Brooklawn, we strive to create an environment where our youth feel cherished, safe, and truly at home. To help a child feel most comfortable when they arrive, each child receives a welcome basket and will “shop” for items they would like in their calming box. Calming boxes will be filled with items such as Play-Doh, weighted blankets, and other similar items to be used when a child feels overwhelmed and needs to reconnect. 

We currently need items to stock in our “store” for these calming box items. Please view the wishlist of items here. Thank you for your support!

There are a few other ways to support us as well:
