About Union County Christmas Bureau
In 1979, the Jaycee Goodfellows, the Salvation Army, and the
Department of Social Services came together to try to meet the
needs of families during the Christmas season. That first year,
approximately 300 families were provided with toys and food for
their Christmas gifts. The Union County Christmas Bureau was
organized in 1983 to help meet the needs of low income families in
our communities. The Christmas Bureau became a collaborative effort
of many agencies within Union County including churches, civic
groups, schools, and businesses. The Christmas Bureau was also
formed as a clearinghouse to help prevent duplication of assistance
among families. Today, the Union County Christmas Bureau assists
over 2,000 families each year and in order to continue to meet the
needs of this growing number, we need help from others in our
community. In addition to more than 200 volunteers, the Christmas
Bureau relies on monetary donations, toy and gift item donations,
and family sponsorships. Individuals, businesses, churches, and
organizations can find at least one way they can assist and help
others in the community. Enjoy our website and just imagine the
possibilities of hundreds of smiling children on Christmas morning
because you took the time to care.
How to Help Financial Donations:
With the generous support of many in our community, the Union
County Christmas Bureau made Christmas a special time for 9,552
individuals in [...]
