Grandma's Gifts is an incorporated, non-profit organization started by Emily Elizabeth Douglas in 1993 at age 11, in memory of her grandmother.

The organization provides goods and services to impoverished children and their families while focusing on Appalachian areas of the United States.

Since its inception, Grandma's Gifts has raised over USD 12 million worth of goods and services[1] while never paying its volunteers.
