Happy Hope Bags® deliver a boost of hope to children in your community that need it most.

The CarMax Foundation has partnered with Happy Hope Foundation® to offer Happy Hope Bags® as a kitpacking Volunteer Team Builder opportunity that can take place at CarMax or offsite. Happy Hope Bags bring joy to children enduring hospitalization, treatments, or other difficult situations. Each kit is customized for the situation to help bring HOPE to children fighting against the odds. All necessary items ship directly to the CarMax Cares Team Captain and are ready for their team to get started. If your location is interested in participating, please fill out the form below.
