Help us...help them...this Christmas!

This year, we are celebrating 14 Years of providing Christmas for those in need.

This year, more than ever, families are struggling just to make ends meet. With layoffs, loss of jobs, and missed paychecks the need is great!

How can you help? While cleaning out your storage areas, switching out seasonal items, etc. please keep us in mind. We need items for men, women, youth, children, and babies.

We accept ALL items...big or small. Discontinued items, leftover sample sale items, opened box sets, stocking stuffers, gift wrap items, snack items, etc. We have a team that can turn any unwanted items into an amazing gift.

Although we work year-round collecting gifts for our program, this year has been particularly tough.

A Christmas to Remember is a unique program ministering to families in our community; families that need a little extra help at Christmas time.

We are unique in the fact that we not only provide gifts for children...we provide gifts for the entire family...and the gifts are selected by children! It's an entire morning or shopping, gift wrapping, snacks, pictures, music, etc. A day that many children never get to experience.

How does our program work?

1. Our program is not a "wish list" program. We provide gifts for families that just want "a gift" under their tree...although we have some pretty amazing items to choose from.
2. We work with school counselors, women and children's shelters, and many other "child-centered" organizations to identify families that are truly in need.
3. Children are chosen by their school counselor or program director to participate in our program and are truly in need. One family that participated in our program a couple of years ago was actually living in their car. :(
4. Forms go home with each selected child/family.
5. Once the completed form is returned to the school counselor he/she will register them for our program on-line.
6. On shopping day, each child will receive "love bucks" (play money) to purchase gifts for each member of their family. They will shop for gifts, wrap them, enjoy snacks, Christmas music, fun pictures, and more, and then take their gifts home to be placed under their tree (if they have one).
