The 180 Project’s Christmas Gift Appeal!

Christmas is on its way, and once again, The 180 Project is thrilled to kick off our Christmas Gift Appeal! As  members of Community Church, you have a special opportunity to spread joy and hope to families in our community who need it most. We support families from all walks of life, each with their own story and unique challenges.

To make this experience even more magical, we invite parents to share gift ideas, hobbies, or interests for each child which we then share with Gift Sponsors. This allows you to choose a gift that will light up their faces and make them feel truly special.

But that’s not all! Every adult in the household will receive a lovely toiletry set, generously provided through Church funds. This is just one of the many ways we use your tithes and offerings to bless those in need through our community arm, The 180 Project. Each household will also receive festive treats and a supermarket voucher to help ease the financial strain during the Christmas season.

Every year, families are filled with gratitude for the love and support they receive from our church during this special time. Your contributions truly make a difference!

Here’s how you can help spread the Christmas cheer:

1. Volunteer to buy a gift for a local child: If you missed the Christmas Appeal Launch at our All Sites Celebration in November, don’t worry! Just reach out to Lydia via email.

2. Make a financial contribution: Your generous donations will help us provide delicious treats, toiletries, and supermarket vouchers. Click here to give.

3. Join our wrapping party on Sunday, December 15th: Help us wrap the gifts with love and joy! Email Lydia for more details. 

Thank you for your kindness and support! Together, let’s make this Christmas a memorable one for our community! 🎁❤️
