What is Christmas Giving? This initiative supports underprivileged families in Neenah and Menasha, ensuring they have a memorable Christmas by offering clothing and gifts. Thanks to the incredible generosity of the community, volunteers, and staff, the Christmas Giving program successfully provided gifts to over 950 children last year. From dolls, Legos, and clothing to sporting goods, books, and blankets, the program brightened the holiday season for families in need. We remain committed to extending this service to families with children aged birth to 18 residing in Neenah and Menasha. Referrals to the Christmas Giving program come from health and human service departments, schools, churches, and various youth organizations.
