On the ground in our community all year, not just during the holiday rush.

The foundation handles family registration. The local chapter stays active through crisis support, community outreach, and local events across Adams County and Hanover, PA.

Year-Round Support

When families face a house fire, foster care transition, hospital stay, or shelter placement, the chapter helps move toys, books, school supplies, and comfort items quickly.

We partner with local businesses, schools, daycares, doctors' offices, restaurants, shelters, and first responders across Gettysburg, Adams County, and Hanover, PA.

Holiday Joy

During campaign season, volunteers, donors, and local collection partners help sort and distribute gifts so children across our service area can feel remembered and celebrated.
