Holiday Gift drive is currently closed. Come back October 2022 to register your child or find giving information.
Whether we’re 8 years old or 80, the magic of a gift never goes out of style. For decades, generous neighbors and local businesses have teamed up to bring the magic of holiday gifts and essentials to hundreds of young people and families through our Holiday Gift Program.
Program Information
Through the generosity of local businesses, churches, and neighbors, each year over 800 children are given a gift to help make their holidays bright.
Additionally, those who live in the Wexford Ridge Neighborhood or the Tree Lane Family Apartments can submit a request for a Holiday Food Basket delivery. These baskets are generously provided by and delivered by the members of the St. Thomas Aquinas Parish on Old Sauk Road.
