What’s the best way to help?

How do we sponsor so many Christmas Baskets?
Through the support of our major sponsors, local businesses, generous individuals and many community groups, Christmas Index was able to help make Christmas special by providing gifts for over 800 children in Colchester County last year.
Any families who have been approved through the Christmas Index program get a Christmas Basket.
The Christmas Index itself sponsored over 110 families last year thanks to the generous financial donations from people just like you as well as local community groups, churches and businesses!
