Making a Difference

Mobile Hope’s Christmas Village for Children in Need

December 15th & 16th, 5:00-pm-8:00pm, Hope’s Village will be transformed into a Christmas wonderland. This year, we will compassionately serve more than 2,500 children in need with new, wrapped toys, bikes, stuffed animals, diapers, food and seasonal clothing. But we need your help! Collecting toys for these deserving kids takes a village! Last year, we collected and distributed more than 10,000 new, unwrapped toys…won’t you help us deliver again this year?

The kids will be entertained by Santa Claus, the Grinch, elves, holiday music, festive lights and delightful decorations. The gifts will be collected, wrapped and distributed with the help of our volunteers, corporate partners, civic groups, faith-based groups, small businesses, individuals and families.

2023 marks Mobile Hope’s twelfth year bringing joy to local kids at Christmas time. This years’ Christmas Village event will be held on December 15th and 16th, and Mobile Hope will distribute any remaining toys through our bus outreach program, “Listen for the Honk”, which provides food and vital supplies to neighborhoods most impacted by poverty, food insecurity and limited opportunity.

In 2022, Mobile Hope began collecting toys in October with a goal of 10,000 toys donated by our generous community. Many corporate groups are sponsoring the event this year and helping us wrap. To sponsor as a small business, corporation, individual or family, email getinvolved@mobile-hope.org.
