Christmas giving doesn’t have to mean consumerism. Through this Alternative Christmas effort, our holiday spending becomes a way to:
Support meaningful missions that bring hope locally and globally
Celebrate community gifts by sharing skills, talents, and creativity
Give with intention — blessing loved ones with presents that carry purpose and impact
The funds used to purchase these precious gifts will go directly to our mission partners. Learn more about them below.
Your contribution could be:
A handmade quilt, knit scarf, or hat
A set of handmade cards
A jar of homemade jam or a holiday treat
A painting, woodwork, or glass piece
A service such as dog walking, snow shoveling, landscaping, or window cleaning
Every item or service is a chance to share your time, talent, or creativity — and bring joy to another family this Christmas.
We would love to have photos of contributions by mid-October to help people plan for their Christmas shopping. Please reach out to the office or use this form to let us know what you plan to contribute or discuss options.
If you’d like to support our ministry partners with a financial contribution, please note Christmas for a Cause on a check or use the “Other Donation” online and put Christmas for a Cause as the note.
