How can I volunteer?

    • By helping decorate and set up on Saturday, December 14th or cleaning up after the event on Sunday, December 15th
    • By bringing a dessert
    • By preparing or serving food
    • By sponsoring a child/family

What does it mean to sponsor a child?

    • Sponsoring a child includes shopping for Christmas gifts for the child and wrapping them.
    • Closer to December, you will be assigned a child and given a list of their interests and wants to help you shop for them.

How much does it cost to sponsor a child?

    • When you commit to sponsoring a child, you commit to spending between $50-$100 per child.

Can I sponsor more than one child?

    • Of course! You can sponsor however many children you feel the Holy Spirit leading you to help. It is also okay to sponsor only one child. We know that finances can be tight for everyone at the holidays!

How do I sign up to be a sponsor?

    • Contact Dalton Busby at (256)499-4071 with your name and how many children you can commit to sponsoring.
    • If you would like to donate money rather than go shopping for gifts yourself, you are welcome to donate $50-$100 and we will use it to purchase gifts.
    • If you and a fellow church member/friend would like to sponsor an entire family together, you can do that as well. This is helpful if we have a large family of multiple children, thus making the cost of gifts much higher.
    • Deadline to sign up to be a sponsor: October 6th

When do I need to sign up by?

    • We will be taking volunteers for sponsoring through the month of September. The earlier you contact Dalton the better!
