What is the Christmas Store?

The Christmas Store is an opportunity for low-income families in our neighborhood to purchase several gifts for their children at a reduced price in a dignifying manner. It is important to preserve each family’s dignity by creating an opportunity that would allow them to select gifts, at a significant savings, that are appropriate and enjoyable for their children. This unique day honors the parents while offering a low-cost, supportive alternative to retail shopping. Neighborhood families receive a special invitation to the one day Christmas Store where they can purchase Christmas gifts at a savings of 75% off the retail price. Parents select up to 2 gifts, which have been donated by people like you, for each of their children. Then, volunteers provide gift-wrapping while the parents enjoy Christmas music and refreshments.
