Camp County Christmas for Kids

Camp County Christmas for Kids is an all-volunteer organization specifically committed to helping Camp County children have a good Christmas. Children, who might not otherwise receive any presents, and especially that one present they wanted all year, have the opportunity, through their parents’ signing them up in October, to get their names and present requests listed on an ‘Angel Tree’. AngelTreeshavebeenplaced around town in local banks, Smith Furniture, andFarmSupply. Allgiftsareexpected to be turned in by December 3rd. Volunteers will be picking up at the drop off sites and carrying them to First United Methodist Church Ministry Center, which turns into a local branch of Santa’s toy depot for the next seven days. Volunteers and elves match the donated toys to the designated children. Fundraisers and monetary donations cover the rest of the requested toys. Parents pick them up on December 12th.
