Community members are invited to help extend that joy to older adults and adults with disabilities by donating filled and wrapped Easter baskets.

The Union County Christmas Bureau is donor-funded and volunteer-driven. It provides holiday gifts and food to families who need a helping hand.
Support our local families in need this holiday season by participating in our toy drive at your school, church, or business. We're looking for new, unwrapped toys and gifts suitable for children aged from infants to 18 years old. Please note that we no longer accept donations of used toys.
Donate Clothes
Additionally, you can contribute to our clothing drive by providing new clothes, coats, shoes, blankets, diapers, and wipes for children in need, spanning from infants to 18 years old. As with toys, we do not accept used clothing items.
Donate Food
If you'd like to help in another way, consider a food drive. We appreciate any donations, but the items most needed include: canned meats like chicken, tuna and potted meat, green vegetables, crackers, peanut butter, beans, instant grits, soups, rice, canned fruits and Pop-Tarts.
Your generosity can make a significant difference in the lives of those we serve. Thank you for your support!
