n 2023, the 15th annual Christmas Store will deploy over 200 volunteers, on Saturday, December 9th, in order to give an awesome Christmas to 250 families and 600 children. We invite you to support the West Chicago Christmas Store, an event that will release the generosity of several local churches to positively impact 250 local families. To build a stronger community, please consider supporting the Christmas Store by contributing financially with a tax deductible cash gift or sponsoring a gift drive at your organization.

Ways in which to participate:

  • Individuals & Companies
    1. Purchase a gift off of our gift list and place it—new, unwrapped, and with the receipt—in one of our Gift Drive collection boxes at one of the locations listed below.
    2. Purchase gifts from our online "Wish Lists" and have them shipped directly to the Christmas Store location.
    3. Donate money (checks can be made out to Community Fellowship with Christmas Store in the memo line).
    4. Donate Wrapping paper so volunteers can wrap gifts for families once the presents are chosen.
  • Companies ONLY
    1. A Gift Drive collection box can be provided for a company gift drive. Then, at the end of November or beginning of December we will have a volunteer team pick up the box and the donated gifts from your company. (exact dates TBD)

Resource Development Volunteers for the Christmas store are reaching out to the local businesses with this invitation. Our goal is to raise enough resources to furnish 500 $25-$40 gifts to the store. This will ensure that all parents will be able to select two gifts for each of their children. Surplus contributions will be used to open shopping appointments to more families. Our volunteers can connect you with more information about how a gift drive works. If your business chooses to participate, please let us honor your efforts by recognizing you before all 2022 Christmas Store contributors, shoppers and volunteers.
