The Empty Stocking Fund (ESF) is a brand that aims to bring joy to the lives of disadvantaged children. They provide toys and gifts during the holiday season, as well as other essential supplies throughout the year, to support positive social and emotional development and academic success. ESF acquires brand new items through relationships with wholesale distributors and in-kind donations from trusted corporations.

This allows them to offer a variety of age- and gender-appropriate gift choices and core school supplies. During December, parents and guardians of children from birth to 12 years old, who qualify for benefits through the state of Georgia, can shop for gifts for their children. Additionally, ESF provides school supplies to teachers and students of local Title 1 schools during the back-to-school season.

The Empty Stocking Fund relies on the generous support of corporate sponsors, individual donors, and volunteers to make their efforts possible. They offer various ways to support their fundraising efforts, and all donations are tax-deductible. The brand has a long history, starting in 1927, and has been making a positive impact in the community ever since.

The Empty Stocking Fund is governed by a dedicated board of directors and supported by an advisory board comprised of community and business leaders. With the hard work of their team members and the support of donors and volunteers, the Empty Stocking Fund is able to bring hope, happiness, and smiles to children in need
