The Cole Collection Event

Last week, one of our shoppers had the sweetest encounter at the Meijer checkout. She told the couple behind her they could go ahead since she’d be a while, but they stayed—and soon noticed her overflowing cart. When she explained she was shopping for The Cole Collection kids, the man quietly opened his wallet and handed her $200 to put toward the gifts.

Just… kindness. Pure and simple.

We’re so grateful for every person who shows up in big and small ways for these kids.

Shopping has begun for The Cole Collection kids, and our hearts are full already.🎁

This is one of our favorite parts of the season—picking out gifts with so much love and knowing they’ll land in the hands of kids who deserve to feel seen and celebrated.

What a night! We woke up filled with gratitude for this amazing community. Thank you to everyone who came out to support the Cole Collection kiddos — you make it all possible!

Up next — we start shopping for the kids! 🎁✨

Thank you for your support and joining us again this year!

Grateful to be part of The Cole Collection Event again this year.
