DoorDash is the ultimate accomplice for last-minute shoppers, and the Holiday Rescue Sweepstakes turns those dreaded "shipping delay" alerts into a chance to score replacement gifts (before anyone notices they were ordered late).

"The holidays are the most wonderful time of the year, but even the best-laid plans can go sideways," said Jennifer Richardi, Head of Brand & Creative at DoorDash. "When that must-have gift doesn't show up on time or a package doesn't quite make the sleigh, DoorDash steps in to keep the magic on track. From beauty and tech to pet gifts and more, our holiday rescue is about getting the presents you need today - not in 'two days.'"
