Presents given in 2024! (Actually, it was a lot more, but we lost count!)

We’re back, baby! Come volunteer with us!

It's the most wonderful time of year - it's time to sign up to volunteer for our Christmas in the City Holiday Party!

100% goes to kids and families

We do 100% of everything with volunteers, because being all-volunteer ensures that 100% of our donations go to those we support. We love our volunteers, and they tend to love us back. We know this because many of our group, corporate, and individual volunteers return again and again.

I love helping families understand that no matter what life is throwing at you HOPE is not that far and can come in different shapes, forms and colors.
