2019-NORTH RICHMOND CHRISTMAS

People have dignity when they can purchase gifts/food for their own families.

Families of North Richmond are very grateful for the partnership that ACC has had with the Neighborhood House of North Richmond since 1960’s. Our ACC Christmas project is part of our partnership. Thank you for your generosity of past years and we invite you to extend the same this year from Sunday November 10th through Sunday November 24th.

This Year we are simplifying by asking folks to make donations to the project. A member of the Board of Missions and Social Justice will use the funds to purchase gift cards at Target and Food Max. These cards will be distributed by Corrine Sain early in December so parents can shop for their children. She’ll determine the number of families served based on the number or cards she receives.

As you are considering how much to give, this might help: In the past, we have purchased Target cards worth $25 per family member, so if you’d like to support the purchase of gift cards for 4 children, then a $100 donation would do it. If you would like to support cards for two Seniors, then a donation of $50 would work. In the past we also provided groceries for family holiday dinner which were costing around $100 for a large family, so you may also may wish to donate money for 4x $25 cards or $100 for a family’s dinner.

CHECK GIFTS FOR ANY AMOUNT ARE INVITED. Please make checks to Arlington Community Church and on memo line write North Richmond Christmas. (These donations are Tax Deductible.)
