Hand-painted by kids in inner-city schools. Each one-of-a-kind ornament comes with a personal letter from the child who made it — and 100% of profits go back to their school.
By Maya, age 8 — Jefferson Elementary
BHLH ships a complete painting kit to a low-income school — free of charge. Everything kids need, ready to go.
Students paint a wood ornament and write a heartfelt letter about who they are. Pure creativity and personality.
The teacher ships the ornaments back. Each one is photographed and listed individually on this website.
You receive a truly one-of-a-kind ornament and letter. The school receives the funds for activities and programs.
Each purchase ships directly to you from Big Hearts, Little Hands
"We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give."— Winston Churchill
Big Hearts, Little Hands was founded with one belief: every child deserves the chance to share their creativity with the world — and every school deserves the funds to make their kids' experiences extraordinary.
Traditional school fundraisers require kids to sell to friends, family, and neighbors — a real challenge in low-income communities where those networks are limited.
BHLH is different. We connect inner-city schools to a wider audience of buyers who love giving meaningful, handmade gifts and making a real impact.
