Sharing The Love in 2021
Christmas for Kids is a joint fundraising effort sponsored by iHeartRadio station Mix 98.1 and a local retired Marine volunteer. Each year for the past 27 years, this campaign has provided Christmas presents for children of need in Defiance, Williams, Henry, Paulding and Fulton counties. Over 5,000 children are benefactors of Christmas for Kids each year. Starting in the first week of November through the first week in December, we work to collect toy donations and monetary donations to help the cause.
We, along with volunteers, again hope to raise thousands of dollars which will be used to provide toys, books, and other gift items for our children in need. We believe every child deserves a Christmas, and with your help we can accomplish this very special goal. Monetary donations or un-opened toys are accepted as gifts. Help make a difference in a child's life this holiday season!
