Music, stories and messages of hope for the most festive time of the year.
Hope for the Holidays is an end-of-year program that celebrates the best parts of humanity during the most festive time of the year in the United States. Each season brings together beloved recording artists, inspiring guests and everyday heroes for heartwarming music and messages of hope, especially for those who find the holidays hardest.
It began as a program of ResilientYOU, first as a prime-time CBS television special on KUTV Channel 2 and then as a live benefit concert. Now it is growing into its own organization, with the same goal: to spread hope, joy and resilience to as many families as we can reach.

Inspiring words from special guests about finding light, strength and connection when times are hard.

From toy drives to community partners, every season helps families in need have a brighter holiday.
Hope for the Holidays marked its fifth annual season in 2024, then stepped onto the stage in 2025 as a live benefit concert.
