The best gifts are those given from the heart and there is no shortage of opportunities awaiting you this holiday season. The 2024 Patrick County Christmas Cheer campaign is now in full swing, and we are seeking individuals and organizations to bring smiles to children’s faces and restore hope to families in need. This year the program received requests from over 128 families, seeking assistance for more than 269 children within our county.
The goal of Christmas Cheer is to provide warm clothing and a few age-appropriate toys for our community’s families in need. We have tags with children’s wish list items and sizes ready for pick up in several locations across the county: First Horizon Bank, Carter Bank, and Legacy Insurance in Stuart; Primitive Coffee in Meadows of Dan, Boyd’s Family Restaurant in Ararat; Pickle & Ash in Patrick Springs; and Crossroads Café in Woolwine. Individuals and organizations can stop in any of these locations to select their child or email michelle@thinklegacy.org.
Those not interested in shopping may make monetary donations by mailing your donation to PO Box 222, Stuart, VA 24171 or online at www.patrickcountychristmascheer.com; please make your check payable to Patrick County Christmas Cheer. Any amount is gratefully accepted.
Grab a group of friends or your family and pick a tag of a local child to make their holiday bright. Your generous support is the reason for the season and will help a neighbor in need.
