Special thanks to the East Chapel Hill Rotary Club and HOBY - Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership NC East high schoolers for helping us provide bikes to 75 children this year commemorating our 75th anniversary of Christmas House.

The HOBY Volunteers put together 25 of the bikes as part of their leadership weekend back in June.

We cannot thank all of our volunteers enough for making this years event successful. From our kitchen crew feeding all the volunteers to the teens who helped box up items to the firefighters who carried bookshelves to all of fabulous guides helping families shop, it really takes a village. Thank you from the bottom of our heart, each of you are truly a treasure.

❤️Help Us Spread Holiday Joy to Local Children ❤️

Every year, Christmas House opens its doors to nearly 900 children in our community - kids whose families are struggling to make ends meet, but who still believe in the joy and wonder of the holiday season.

For these children, Christmas House isn’t just a gift program.
It is a moment of hope.
A moment that tells them they are seen, loved, and worth celebrating.

This year, the need is greater than ever. School social workers are sending us heartbreaking stories from right here in Chapel Hill-Carrboro and Orange County, stories of families working two or three jobs and still unable to afford a single gift.

✨ You can change that.
A donation of any size helps us stock up on new toys, books, winter coats, sports equipment, arts & craft sets, and teen gifts that make the season bright.

🎁 Every dollar goes directly to putting gifts into the hands of children who need them most.
And with your help, we can make sure no child is forgotten this holiday season.

If you’re able, please give today through our secure PayPal Giving Fund link below. Your generosity will make a real, immediate difference for a child in our community.

❤️ Thank you for helping us spread kindness, dignity, and joy this holiday season.
Together, we can make Christmas morning magical. ✨

Help me spread the word about Christmas House, Inc.. Together we can make a difference.
