Holiday Program

December 8 - 13, 2025 at Broadway Christian Church
Give to Holiday 2025

Our Annual Holiday Program is an act of solidarity that brings joy and support to over 1,000 families in Boone County each year.

Through the generosity of our community, we provide gifts, essential items, and holiday cheer to our neighbors in need—not as charity, but as a reflection of our belief that when one of us thrives, we all thrive. By sharing in this spirit of togetherness, we ensure that every child experiences the magic of the season while fostering a stronger, more connected community.

Client Participants

Sign-ups to be adopted for our Annual Holiday Program are OPEN! They will CLOSE promptly on October 10, 2025 at noon. 

If you want to GIVE to the program, check out the DONATE section (to the right).

Donate

Financial gifts stretch further than you might imagine. Every dollar donated supports families through additional food, gift cards, and essential items. Monetary contributions also help fill gaps when needs exceed what is donated, ensuring no family is left behind during the holidays.

Sponsor A Family

Bring joy to the holiday season by sponsoring a local family. Sponsors are matched with neighbors in need and receive a personalized wish list, making it easy to shop for meaningful gifts. Your generosity ensures parents can provide both practical necessities and a few holiday surprises, creating lasting memories for the entire household. Sign-ups to sponsor a family will open on September 15, 2025.

The Holiday Program would not be possible without the dedication of our volunteers. From sorting and organizing donations to helping distribute gifts, you are the hands and hearts that make the magic happen. By giving your time, you provide more than assistance, you bring dignity, hope, and joy to families while strengthening the spirit of community. We are grateful for your generosity and commitment. Thank you for making the holidays brighter for so many.
