Christmas Providers organization provides a unique adopt-a-family Christmas program whereby people ("Providers") who choose to help a family in need will actually get to meet their adopted family and deliver Christmas presents and food themselves. We have been serving the Birdville & Hurst-Euless-Bedford Independent School Districts since 1984, connecting 400-600+ families with a "Provider" every Christmas season.
Our organization works closely with the school counselors, nurses, & staff of the two partner school districts to ensure that the families most in need are identified for the program. The students of these two school districts hold a food drive for our organization so that adoptive families can receive non-perishable canned goods in addition to Christmas gifts.
Christmas Providers relies on local businesses, churches, & the surrounding community to adopt families in need. Providers purchase gifts for the children, and a holiday meat for the family & they pick up 60 lbs. of food & a grocery gift card prepared & purchased by the Christmas Providers organization.
Mission
Christmas Providers is a 100% volunteer non-profit serving the HEB and Birdville ISDs for more than 40 years. Our mission is to bring the joy of Christmas to 600+ families in need through our unique Adopt-a-Family program.
