Gifts of Hope Foundation - 2025

Donation protected
This cause is dedicated to our beloved brother Eric Schultz. Eric is remembered by loved ones as a father, brother, son, cousin, and friend. In 2016, Eric passed away from an overdose after having over 2 years of sobriety. Eric struggled with this disease for many years.

In Eric’s name, our family has started a tradition to show people recovering from addiction in treatment centers that there are others going through a similar situation, and there will always be people who care. With the money we raise, we provide a gift and letter from Eric to individuals in treatment centers throughout South Florida. They are alone for the holidays and may feel everyone has given up on them. Our hope is that the gifts will give them a sense of comfort and moment of reflection.

Please take the time to read "Eric's Letter" below. It may be something you can relate to or are touched by. We hope by continuing this tradition each year, we can keep Eric's name alive.

With the generous donations we’ve received since we began in 2018, we’ve been able to provide a letter and gift to over 800 individuals. We hope that we've been able to impact someone enough to make a difference. Our goal is to continue spreading hope and love during the holidays, when times can be especially difficult for those who may be spending them without their families. We appreciate every donation no matter how big or small, that says yes, I also care about Eric’s cause. God bless and happy holidays!
