Citizens' Christmas City Committee

🎄❤️Giving back is what the season is all about! Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we proudly donated $1,000 to Victory House of Lehigh Valley on behalf of the Citizens’ Christmas City Committee. These funds were raised throughout the season through sales of our trellis ornament, “Legacy of Love,” created in honor of Victory House’s 40 years of service supporting homeless men and veterans.

✨ This donation will help support the opening of Victory House’s new women’s center, extending their mission to even more neighbors in need.

✨ We are beyond grateful to everyone who purchased an ornament or made a donation and helped make this initiative such a success. We look forward to continuing this tradition and raising funds for local nonprofits in the years to come.
✨ Together, Bethlehem truly shines! Thank you, Tom, Rex, Kate and Derek for being with us last night for our check presentation!
