We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed to this Year’s Christmas Joy-Drive, which ended last Friday.
Your generosity ensured that all the children on our list had gifts to enjoy this Christmas. We received so many gifts that we were able to bring gifts to the children and families who were not registered and are just returning for the work season.
With your help, we distributed more than 625 gifts for the kids in our community.
Thank you! again for helping to make our community stronger and for creating a magical Christmas for the youngest we served.

Our BACK to SCHOOL BACKPACK-DRIVE was a HUGE SUCCESS!
Thank you again for the amazing support for our Backpack and School Supplies campaign this year. It was so great to see how excited our children and parents were to receive the backpacks.
Their eyes lit up when they received the backpack and saw them filled with supplies. We really want you to know what a difference your thoughtfulness and generosity make in the lives of these families.
Thanks to every one of you, we have provided over 540 children with a backpack and school supplies they need to start their 2024-2025 school year! The average cost is $110 for each backpack and enough supplies for the school year. We are grateful for your care and support to our community
On behalf of the families and especially the children we serve, thank you again for your contribution!

General Household
Due to a limited amount of storage, we ask that if you have things like pots, pans, basic dishes, sheets, pillows, bicycles, or portable sleeping tents that you contact the mission first to confirm there is a need.
If you have a delivery of these items, please contact us by phone, text or email ahead of time as our schedule on site has limited hours. We cannot accept donations on Fridays unless your group is serving that day. Thank you for understanding.
