Spreading the joy of the holidays to hundreds of local children!
The MAM Christmas Share Program brings holiday joy to hundreds of children in our community each year. Many of the families we assist face difficulties in affording basic necessities. With your help, we provide toys, gift cards, and blankets to help brighten their holiday season. Your support can make all the difference in their holiday season.
How the Christmas Share Program works:
Your Toy Donations + Parents Shopping = Holiday Joy for Children!
MAM collects donations of new toys, blankets and gift cards to stock our stores, called The North Pole and The South Pole.
Families are invited to "shop" for their children during a scheduled time. Volunteer "Elves" are on-hand to help parents make selections.
Parents get to surprise their children with gifts specially selected for them! Teens are given a fun $50 gift card! And each child gets a warm blanket too!
Ways to help:
Make a Monetary Donation
Gifts in any amount to the Christmas Share program allow our Shopper Elves to buy last minute toys, blankets and gift cards to make sure all children will receive gifts.
