Christmas GIFT Mart @ Woodland

We are excited to be able to, once again, put on a Christmas Gift Mart at Woodland Elementary School in Joliet on Saturday, December 14th.


The Christmas Gift Mart is an event that allows the school to sell donated toys for pennies on the dollar. By selling items at such a reduced rate, parents, that normally may not be able to buy gifts for their children, will be able to do so without simply receiving a “hand-out”.


Our goal is to continue to partner with the school and our community to provide gifts for every student at Woodland.


All money received from the sale of toys goes directly to Woodland Elementary School to fund school initiatives.

HOW CAN I HELP?

There are a few ways you can help make this event a success and bring hope and joy to the families and staff at Woodland:

  • Our goal is to collect enough gifts for each student at Woodland to receive at least 2 gifts for Christmas. 


    Donate gifts valued between $10-$25.


    Gifts should be delivered to / dropped off at Crossroads Christian Church by December 3rd.
