The childrens' wish lists are listed in the The Sun Chronicle's Sunday Edition following Thanksgiving. This year, the list will appear in the newspaper on Sunday, Nov. 29, 2009. The list of requested gift items appears on 3 full pages in the Sun Chronicle which generously provide space in their newspaper free of charge.

Members of the community participate by "sponsoring" children and purchasing a child's request. A donor makes a call to the donor request phone line at 508-226-0911 and selects their child. More than one child may be selected at this time. We assign an ID number code for each child on the list who is participating in the program so we can easily keep track of all the children and gifts we receive. Please keep note of each child's  ID number code when your child has been selected. The donor will shop for the child’s requested toy and clothing items. Many donors decide to put in more toys than requested, some extra warm clothing items, food gift certificates for the family’s Christmas Dinner, and even filled stockings for the children. 

You may also assist us by participating in one of our collection drives or other fundraising events. To learn more, click here.
