Holiday Drive
Help us prove a $25 gift card and a warm blanket to 1,000 neighbors this holiday season!
Our community showed up last year
A $25 gift card can give a family the chance to choose a holiday gift that feels right for their child or loved on. A warm blanket can offer comfort to an older neighbor. Last year, our community came together to provide 727 people with a gift card and a blanket, including families served by HCM and residents of Highland Court Apartments.
This year, we’re hoping to reach 1,000 neighbors. HCM has seen an 80% increase in people relying on our services, in large part because our service area expanded after South East Area Ministries closed and HCM took on half of residents of the 40218 zip code. Last year showed what our community can make possible when we come together. With your help, we can reach even more neighbors this holiday season.
