How Kristi’s Christmas Helps the Children Throughout the Year
- We provide school supplies, including backpacks….year round.
- In the winter, we collect and distribute warm jackets, coats, mittens, gloves, hats, etc.
- Sweat shirts and pants provided include small sizes for the little children who need a change at school.
- Christmas gifts…the Toy Shop is open in December for School Personel to come and select a gift for the children who will not be getting anything. Each child is usually able to get a toy, book, and stuffed animal, depending on what has been collected and given.
- In the summer, we have paid for children to attend camp.
- During the school year, if there are needs for assisting a student on a Field Trip, we have helped.
- We have paid for eyeglasses when a child has a very severe vision issue. We work with an eye doctor who will see the child at a discount rate to make sure the child has proper care.
- Bikes have been donated and given to children.
- Sleeping bags, several beds, etc. have been given so that children who have no bed can have some comfort.
- Reading Books are always collected and distributed to schools so that the children who do not own a book can have their very own.
Kristi’s Christmas does NOT give money for medicines, electric bills, or rent.
