Caroling and Candy Canes
Organize a caroling group and go "house to house" in neighborhoods. Take candy canes or a small gift to give as well. For another spin — go with low income areas, especially inner city urban, take hot chocolate and cookies and serve the residents.
Poinsettias — take small poinsettia plants as "house to house" gifts.
Tree Giveaway
A few days before Christmas, lot owners are willing to give the trees away. With pickup trucks, deliver them to financially stretched single parent families.
Candy Giveaway
Give out Christmas candy in front of stores or on busy downtown walkways. Be sure to include a card with your church info on it.
Christmas Tea - Host a Christmas tea. Have area merchants donate gifts. Make gingerbread houses.
We worked with this organization one year to provide Christmas for special kids.
