20th annual Christmas Holiday House gearing up

Posted

The 2021 Christmas Holiday House gift distribution will be held on Saturday, December 11, at the First Baptist Church Education Building in Fayette.

The Christmas Holiday House project distributes toys, games, art supplies, books, hats, and gloves to provide happy holiday celebrations for registered families. Last year, Christmas Holiday House served 196 children, ages newborn to 12 years, in Howard County. 

Support for Christmas Holiday House comes from individuals, church groups, and civic organizations. Those wishing to contribute to the 2021 Christmas Holiday House may do so by sending cash donations to treasurer, Pat Hilgedick, 105 Givens Road, Fayette. New items—toys, books, games, puzzles, art supplies, hats and gloves—are also accepted. Drop boxes for gifts will be placed at local banks as well as C&R Supermarket in Fayette. 

Families wishing to register for Christmas Holiday House may do so at the First Baptist Church Education Building from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 6, or Saturday, Nov. 13.

The Christmas Holiday House is a community program under the auspices of First Christian Church Outreach Committee. This is the 20th year for the project.

For further information, or to volunteer to help in any way, contact Pat Hilgedick (660-248-3172), or Beverly Markland (660-248-2491).
