How Can I Help Children?

CHRISTMAS WISH LIST

We are currently planning Christmas for The Baby Fold children and their families.  Many of them would otherwise not receive gifts, so contributions like yours make all the difference on Christmas morning!

Individuals, organizations, church groups, and schools within our community call to request lists for a child or children, and they purchase the gifts listed.  The gifts are brought to our drop-off location where our volunteers inventory each gift to ensure it is given to the appropriate child.  As gifts come pouring in, we are reminded of how generous this community is and how none of this would be possible without you!

HOW CAN I GET INVOLVED

It is very easy to help!

1. Call to request a list for 1 or more children. 309-451-7202.
2. Shop for gifts on the list.  Our guideline is $50-$60 per child so you may purchase some of the items or all depending on the price of the items requested.
3. The gifts are brought to our drop-off location where our volunteers inventory each gift to ensure it is given to the appropriate child.

   Donations will be accepted between December 2 - December 13 during the hours of 8am - 6pm, excluding weekends.  Please drop off unwrapped gifts at 1407 N. Veteran’s Pkwy, Suite #6 in Lakewood Plaza.
