Empty Stocking Fund

A timeless charity that carries the real Christmas spirit with it, year after year.

[Empty Stocking Fund @EmptyStockingWC]

Last year, with your help, we gave over 500 children a historical Christmas celebration. This holiday season we hope you'll consider helping us again as we work to fill empty stockings in our community. If there’s ever a time to give, it is this #GivingTuesday

[Empty Stocking Fund @EmptyStockingWC]

Since 1904 our organization has worked to ensure that at every fireside a stocking hangs, and in every stocking, there are gifts!

Join us in helping spread joy and love during this season of giving! Checks can be mailed to
