Holiday Hope Chests

Thanks for participating in Holiday Hope Chests! 

 

 

Make A Difference!
Take a few minutes to go from good intentions to good works this holiday season by participating in the Volunteer Center of the Lehigh Valley's Holiday Hope Chest campaign!

What is Holiday Hope Chests?
Holiday Hope Chests is a national project adopted by the Volunteer Center of the Lehigh Valley, Moravian College, and Northampton Community College to help less fortunate children living in the Lehigh Valley.  Collected Chests (shoeboxes) will be distributed in the Lehigh Valley through agencies serving children throughout the holiday season.  This is a great project for large and small groups, clubs, classes, families, and individuals.

How Can I Participate? 
Just REGISTER and go!  We open registration in September and collect/distribute the Holiday Hope Chests in late November/ early December.  For registration we require that you provide an approximate number of boxes you hope to contribute, and specify the age/gender of your boxes.

Go!
