Thanks for helping
Our Committee and the clients we serve owe a million thanks to the many countless volunteers, service organizations and business groups who generously give their time and energy to Christmas Committee and Toys for Joy. This project could not succeed with them. To become a part of this all-volunteer effort please go to our Help Us page.

Thanks to many donors!
