The holidays are a time of joy, connection, and generosity. For many families, this season is filled with celebrations, but not everyone gets to experience the magic of the holidays. 

Recognizing this, Lucas Barcelo, founder of Thrivin Life, has taken a heartfelt approach to making a meaningful impact. Through a partnership with Hope for the City, Thrivin Life is helping bring joy to children in need.

This holiday season, Barcelo and Thrivin Life are raising donations to help children receive gifts and essentials. The campaign runs until December 23, offering a chance for anyone to brighten the holidays for others in exchange for nothing more than a brief call with Barcelo.

“I’m at my happiest when I can contribute in meaningful ways,” Barcelo shares. “Whether it’s helping someone in need or giving someone the opportunity to shine, making an impact on people’s lives brings me fulfillment.”

Supporting Children through Hope for the City

Hope for the City is more than a charity; it’s a lifeline for families struggling to make ends meet. The organization’s sponsorships provide children with holiday gifts, warm essentials, and food to ease the pressures many families face during the holidays. This year, their immersive drive-thru holiday experience adds an extra sparkle, offering 35,000 children a chance to enjoy the season with their families.

Thrivin Life’s partnership ensures that interested parties can directly contribute to this mission. It’s a simple yet profound way to spread holiday cheer by making a positive impact on those in need during the most wonderful time of the year.

 

Lucas Barcelo: A visionary for community impact

Barcelo’s journey as an entrepreneur is rooted in giving back. His company, Thrivin Life, specializes in life insurance solutions tailored to healthcare professionals. By focusing on their unique needs, Thrivin Life provides term life, whole life, universal life, and final expense insurance options. The company’s dedication to supporting healthcare workers extends beyond financial security — it reflects a broader commitment to community well-being.

For Barcelo, this partnership is a chance to align his professional success with personal values. “This initiative was a chance for me to put my money where my mouth is,” he says. “The community has given me so much, and this is one way I can give back.”

Barcelo’s philosophy is simple but profound: people thrive when they support one another. “We’re all on this floating rock in the sky,” he remarks. “It’s best that we figure out how to get along and help each other whenever possible.”

Making a difference in the community

Thrivin Life’s Hope for Kids campaign is an opportunity to make real change and help build brighter futures for children in need, but it also highlights the importance of community partnerships. Through their collaboration, Thrivin Life and Hope for the City demonstrate how businesses and nonprofits can work together to create lasting impacts. Barcelo’s leadership is a testament to what’s possible when entrepreneurs lead with heart.

 

Hope for the future

The spirit of the holidays often calls for reflection. For Barcelo, it’s a time to acknowledge the support he’s received and find ways to pass it on. 

“It’s not just about writing a check,” he explains. “It’s about being part of something bigger, something that truly touches people’s lives.”

Hope for the City’s drive to help 35,000 children this season resonates deeply with Barcelo’s vision. Through their combined efforts, they’re ensuring that more kids experience the magic of the holidays, regardless of their circumstances.

Anyone interested in contributing to this campaign can visit Thrivin Life’s Hope for Kids page. In return for a few minutes of time to talk with Barcelo about the initiative before December 23, two children can receive moments of joy they’ll cherish for years to come.

 

Why this matters

The holidays are often a reminder of what matters most. For Barcelo, that’s community, compassion, and action. Thrivin Life’s partnership with Hope for the City reflects those values in every way. It’s a campaign that doesn’t just offer gifts — it brings hope, warmth, and a sense of belonging to families who need it most.

Extending kindness to others is a gesture that reflects the best of the holiday spirit. For Barcelo and his team, this campaign is just the beginning of what they hope will be a tradition of giving back.

As the holiday season unfolds, Thrivin Life’s Hope for Kids campaign reminds us of the difference we can all make when we come together. It’s a chance to help children feel seen, valued, and celebrated, but for Barcelo, it’s also a chance to show that business can be a force for good.
