In 1996 Tony Thelen had a vision that has turned into something pretty remarkable! Families were able to have Christmas when they thought there wasn’t going to be a chance. Children were able to open gifts on Christmas morning, there was food supplied for each family so that they were able to enjoy themselves, all because of one mans vision.
We operate based on volunteers and donations.
We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization and are eligible to receive tax-deductible contributions.
Each year, we have been able to bring joy to over twenty-five families and many other members of our communities. The Christmas Care Drive has not only provided toys but also essential necessities to our local families, seniors, schools and veterans. That joy is a result of a combination of food and personal care items that filled 700 baskets delivered by volunteers to our seniors in the Richmond, St. Martin, Farming, Albany, Avon, Freeport, Roscoe and New Munich communities.
