In 2023, 1,294 children, ages 0-17, experienced a joyful Christmas thanks to the generosity and kindness of others.
Parents or legal guardians pre-register, and on distribution day they get to "shop" for a gift for their child. In addition, each family receives a board game to enjoy together. Community members are encouraged to donate a toy to the program. See below for registration, toy collection, and other information.
