You’ve seen the miracles happen. 🎄✨

Over the years, we’ve watched local families walk through some of the hardest seasons of their lives—and together, we’ve been blessed to step up, uplift them, and bring them the Best Christmas Ever.

This year is no different. We are officially on the lookout for local families facing difficult times so we can arrive at their doorsteps the week of Christmas with life-changing surprises! 🎁❤️

To make an even bigger impact this season, we are using this page to showcase everything happening across our local Best Christmas Ever teams. We have three amazing team captains leading the charge locally:
✨ Amanda Dolph
✨ Wendy Whitrock-Keller
✨ Matt Tranel

These captains will be leaning on each other and working together to spread maximum joy. If you’d like to support a specific team individually, please reach out to one of them directly! We’ll also be sharing their upcoming events right here on this page to help get the word out.

Remember: no matter which team you're cheering for or supporting, we are all Best Christmas Ever. Different teams, one massive heart, working toward the exact same cause.

Press play on the reel below to relive some of the unforgettable joy, tears, and smiles we’ve brought to our community over the last few years. Then, take a moment to nominate a family in need or reach out to see how you can support the mission this year! 👇

Over 400 families navigating a tough time in 2025 were blessed with a Best Christmas Ever last Christmas.

This holiday season, our goal is to receive 500 nominations nationwide for families with children who have fallen on tough times through no fault of their own.

Every miracle starts with ONE person, the nominator. Your neighbors need you to be the spark. When you nominate a family, our Captains and local communities step in to practice unreasonable generosity and change a family forever. You make it possible.

The Best Christmas Ever family lost a very special member.

Heather Smith, one of our 2025 BCE recipients, has passed away. Heather reminded us all why we do what we do—she embodied resilience and gratitude even in the toughest times. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family, especially her son, Jeremy and friends as they navigate this difficult loss. Her spirit will always be a part of our BCE story. ✨
