Give the Gift of Hope to Grandfamilies this Holiday Season

What better way to pay it forward this upcoming holiday season than with a gift for grandparents raising grandchildren? The holidays are especially challenging for grandparents on fixed incomes. You can help bring sticky candy cane smiles to one or more grandchildren this year with a gift from our Amazon Wish List or by delivering new toys or gift cards to the Duet office. Pick the perfect gift with ease from the list and click your way to spreading holiday cheer.

What is a grandfamily? In Arizona, 62,433 grandparents are responsible for their grandchildren. For every 1 child raised by kin in foster care, there are 8 raised by kin outside of the system—that’s 87% ineligible to receive assistance awarded to foster families. Duet serves these grandfamilies.
