Our Initiatives:
Give Hope.

The Give Hope Store and Toy Drive is a yearly outreach to provide Christmas gifts for underprivileged children in our community and a shopping experience restoring dignity for their parents.

We partner with local schools to identify families in need and host Christmas shopping day for families to pick out gifts for their children. We are committed to partnering with local businesses and non profits to provide toys to 1000+ children in the Laguna Hills community this year.

Watch this short video to see a recap of last years event where we were able to give 400 kids 2 toys each because of the generosity of people like you and businesses in our community.

This is an awesome event that allows families in need to be able to receive hope, toys and an awesome Christmas experience.

To host this event each year, we are looking for toy donations as well as  financial support to cover the cost of the event. We are also looking for volunteers willing to serve.

If you would like to donate toys or sponsor the event we would be so grateful. You can follow the links below.

Our Testimonials

One of our favorite events of the year is being involved with the Give Hope store!

Hearing stories of how we have impacted our community never gets old. Check out a few from some of the people who have been involved in some of our initiatives.

Elementary Counselor

As a school counselor I see firsthand the families in our community that are at risk. We have partnered with The Go Initiative Group for the past 5 years to help connect them with these families so that every child can experience the joy of the holidays. This past year (2022) I was able to join and be a volunteer to see the experience first hand. It was one of the most incredible experiences to partner with a group of people that just want to make a selfless impact in the community and to see the smiles and the joy on the kids faces and parents as well made it all worth it. Can’t wait for next year! - SVUSD Elementary Counselor

Ryan Ishino

One of our favorite events of the year is being involved with the Give Hope store! This is our opportunity to be the light in our community and make a positive impact during the Christmas season. We look forward to bringing joy to every family that attends, and more importantly, we get to share the hope that is found in Jesus! We also love how the entire Movement Church family rallies around this cause to give back and serve our community with the Go Initiative Group! - Ryan Ishino, Volunteer

In the past toy drives were done with cardboard boxes. But now with technology we can send you straight to an amazon wishlist that will allow you to select the toys you want to purchase and    they will be sent straight to us!
