Extended Family is a community-based 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to supporting families affected by incarceration. We provide adult and children family members the tools and training they need to navigate this difficult transition and build healthy, resilient futures.
Last year, your generosity on Giving Tuesday filled our hearts with gratitude and empowered us to continue reaching families in need. We are excited to once again participate in Giving Tuesday on December 2, 2025, and we invite you to join us in making a meaningful impact.
If you would like to make a tax-deductible contribution this season, please visit our website at www.extendedfamilyhelp.org and click the green “Donate Today!” button on the home page. Every dollar helps us fulfill our mission, “To offer help and inspire hope,” for the 1 in 28 children nationwide who currently have an incarcerated loved one.
We remain deeply grateful for the support that enables us to serve children and adult family members, individuals currently incarcerated who are striving to stay connected with their families, and those returning home to rebuild their lives. With your partnership, we are working to prevent children from entering the justice system, reduce recidivism among youth and adults, and break the cycle of incarceration in families.
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Extended Family! Thank you for your help as we work to change one life – because it’s never just one life.
