Delivering Holiday Joy

Our Holiday Programs are well underway! Thanks to a generous response from the community, all of the families in our housing program have been adopted! You can still get involved in bringing a warm holiday to our families in shelter.

Winter Wonderland is a toy and gift drive for families who will be spending their Christmas in our emergency shelter, or for families who have recently moved out and are just getting settled into their own home. We provide wish lists and shopping guides to make the process easier. You can even order online and have the gifts delivered directly to Bethany House. Parents “shop” for the perfect gift at our Winter Wonderland party. Volunteers wrap the gifts so families have presents to open on Christmas morning.

Bethany Basics are household items that families receive when they leave shelter and move into their own homes. Kitchen items, bathroom necessities, cleaning supplies, and more. This is a year round need that we like to stock up on at the holidays. Wish lists and shopping guides are provided.
