Christmas is a time when we come together to celebrate, give, and care for one another. As we look toward the holiday season, we know there are families in our community who may be facing challenges and could use a little extra support.
Through our Giving Tree, we have an opportunity to come alongside these families, help meet their needs, and bring a little extra joy to their Christmas. We invite you to be part of making the season brighter for those in our community.
How You Can Help:
Families have the option to shop for themselves or receive assistance. Additionally, each family will receive a Christmas Cookie Kit and a craft to help create lasting holiday memories.
Here are several ways you can get involved and make a meaningful impact:
- Gift Cards: We are collecting gift cards to Wal-Mart, Amazon, or Target in amounts of $30 and $50 to distribute to families. (Please, no e-gift cards.)
- Go Shopping: Tangible gift requests will be listed on tags hanging from the Giving Tree in the foyer. Please take a tag, purchase the requested item, and return it unwrapped with the tag attached.
- Online Shopping: We’ve set up an Amazon Wishlist for you to conveniently shop online and have your items shipped directly to the Giving Tree. To view the Wishlist and make a purchase, click here.
- Christmas Cookie Kits: We are also collecting a variety of items to fill the Christmas Cookie Kits for our families. Specific items will be listed on the tree tags in the foyer.
Important Dates:
- Please return all gifts to the church and/or purchase items from the Amazon Wishlist by Sunday, November 29.
Together, we can make this Christmas season brighter for those in need. Your participation, no matter how big or small, will be a blessing to others.
Thank you for your continued support and generosity. If you have any questions, please contact us at givingtree@mountcarmel.cc.
