Christmas Gifts Program
Thank you for your interest in our Christmas Food and Toy program.
Every year, Christmas gifts for children (up to age 17) are available to those receiving food boxes. In 2024, gifts were distributed safely at Seton Catholic College Prep School.
For Christmas 2024, through the generosity of donors who participated in multiple local toy drives, we distributed gifts to 1038 children in 336 families. Many, many thanks to
The Holland Partner Group, and all those who donated to the
KPTV/Les Schwab toy drive and
KGW Great Toy Drive, as well as the parishioners of the Catholic churches who make up our conference:
Our Lady of Lourdes,
Holy Redeemer,
St. Joseph, and
The Proto-Cathedral of St. James the Greater
and our local community, including
The
KMR Foundation,
Columbia Credit Union,
and
Crossroads Community Church. We are also very grateful to the students and families from
Seton Catholic, and the many families and individuals who supported this program with gifts of time and toys. Those donations made such a positive impact on local families as they celebrated the birth of Jesus!
Many thanks to our friends at Seton Catholic College Prep High School for their energetic support during our toy distribution day. We couldn't have done it without them!
We're also very appreciative of the many gifts we received from the Les Schwab/KPTV community toy drive and KGW Great Toy Drive.
These generous members of our local community and their supporters have been so important to the work of the Society of St. Vincent dePaul at Christmas time, and we are very grateful for their help.
