“My kids have money they would like to donate to Christmas for everyone. I would really like them to be able to drop off the check instead of mailing it. Is that a possibility? We could come today or tomorrow. They had to do a project for school, they decided to have a hot chocolate stand and raise money for charity. They chose Christmas for everyone to donate to. They raised nearly $400 to donate. They had a blast doing it and it was so great to see all of the generosity from our neighbors and friends.”
– Sincerely,
Danielle Warford
About
Celebrating over 40 years of service, since 1984
Our Mission
Christmas For Everyone is a volunteer organization, founded in 1984, serving people in need during the Christmas season in Contra Costa County. Our goal is that no one spends Christmas, this most special of all holidays, alone or in need.
Who We Are
CFE is an all-volunteer nonprofit serving the working poor, homebound, lonely, and needy of Contra Costa County. Thanks to the generosity of local businesses, churches, and neighbors, we provide a Christmas celebration for more than 2,000 people each year, and every guest is treated with the kindness and dignity we all deserve.
What We Do
- Free door-to-door transportation to and from our host church
- A warm, traditional Christmas dinner
- A new gift for every guest
- Gently used clothing to choose from
- Entertainment and activities for children and adults
Our volunteers do it all: cooking and serving meals, singing carols, running children’s activities, painting faces, giving haircuts, pouring coffee for guests waiting in line, and even holding babies so parents can shop for clothing.
For those who can’t leave home, volunteers deliver a meal and a gift, along with one more gift that matters just as much: a little time to sit and talk.
Truly Volunteer-Run
CFE partners with service agencies throughout the county to reach as many families as possible. No one receives a paycheck. Every hour is given freely.
Christmas For Everyone is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. EIN: 46-4947056
