Christmas at Help Give Hope is a little different, and that is by design.
When local families apply for our Christmas program, we look at the whole picture. We conduct in-home visits to assess essential needs first, ensuring kids and parents have basic necessities like beds and furniture.
From there, each child gets to fill out their own wish list and receive $100 worth of gifts they picked out themselves. Whether it is educational items or toys they have been dreaming about, every child deserves the joy of unwrapping something chosen specifically for them.
It takes our entire Ozarks community to bring hope and dignity to families during the holidays. To learn more, volunteer, or support a child this season, visit HelpGiveHope.org or call (417) 209-7027.
