About the event

Spreading joy, love, and hope this Christmas season. Hunter’s Heart for the Holidays is a community-driven Christmas assistance program created to bring holiday joy to children and families facing financial hardship in Baldwin County, AL or referred by partnering organizations. Our mission is simple: to ensure that every child experiences the magic of Christmas, no matter their circumstances. Through the generosity of sponsors and volunteers, children are “adopted” from our Wish Trees and receive personalized gifts chosen just for them. Every donation—big or small—helps us make Christmas brighter for families right here in our community. For Sponsors: Sponsors make this program possible! Your business or organization can help by adopting children or families, providing monetary or gift donations, or offering support through goods or services. Your contribution directly impacts local families and shows your commitment to spreading kindness in our community. Sponsorship packages are available and include options for businesses or individuals who would like to support multiple children or sponsor the program as a whole. For Volunteer Shoppers: Volunteer Shoppers are individuals or families who “adopt” a child and shop for their Christmas gifts. You’ll receive that child's favorite color, age, sizes, and wish list so you can make their Christmas extra special. Becoming an Volunteer Shopper is a wonderful way to share the joy of giving and connect with your community this holiday season.
