St. Nicholas Day Social and Share the Warmth

DECEMBER

Help those experiencing homelessness obtain gloves, coats, and other warm winter essentials while kicking off the holiday season with a cup of hot chocolate and a sweet treat.  Each December Valley Mission participates in the Share the Warmth drive sponsored by Buckingham Branch Railroad.  Father Christmas and friends arrive on the train, arms laden with clothing and toys designated for Valley Mission clients.  After the work is done, enjoy a hot cup of cocoa in the Grand Concourse at Stelle Rose.  All proceeds benefit our shelter. Check out our Facebook page in November for details.

Giving Tuesday

NOVEMBER

The first Tuesday after Thanksgiving each year non-profit organizations around the globe are recognized through end of year charitable contributions, most often contributed online.  This day of charitable giving marks the beginning of the Christmas and holiday season, inspiring those to see beyond the commercialism of Black Friday and Cyber Monday to helping agencies who exist to help others.  Join us in celebrating Giving Tuesday this year on December 1st.
