Christmas House estimates needing more than 51,000 gifts for this year’s holiday season. To meet this need, we fundraise and shop all year long. Our Donate page includes ideas on how you can contribute time, resources, money or gifts.
See the information below for some ideas of gifts children enjoy. We offer new items and “like-new” books. Other used clothing, toys and items should be donated to other local nonprofit organizations. Used bicycles can be routed through a partner charity Sharing Wheels who refurbishes them and brings them to us in December.
Unwrapped gifts can be delivered to Christmas House during our open hours in December or be dropped off at one of our donation sites from mid-November through mid-December. Items from online lists we’ve set up with Amazon and HDI Wholesale will be shipped directly to Christmas House. For more information, call 425-338-2273, or email president@christmas-house.org.
