Crafts: We will have materials for children of all ages to make personal ornaments for families in need.

Donations: In addition to making ornaments, we hope to gather donations such as Christmas lights, new or gently used ornaments or even unwrapped toys for Christmas presents for families in need.

Gift Bags or Wrapped Shoeboxes: We will be putting together "Starter Kits" of ornaments and lights for families to take and begin to add a little holiday spirit to their trees and homes and need gift bags or a wrapped shoebox for each kit.

Coffee, hot chocolate and a lot of holiday cheer will be provided. Whether you stop by to make a donation or make an ornament, you will most definitely make someone in need very happy. We hope to see you there!
