Preparation for Polk County Christian Social Ministries’ annual Share Your Christmas program is underway. This is the 38th year for PCCSM to sponsor Share Your Christmas.
What began as giving out a single bag of groceries to families in need in 1985, the program has grown into an abundance of gifts for every child as well as gift bags for adults and groceries for the families.
The next two months will be filled with the activities of many churches, civic groups, organizations, schools, and individuals to provide food and gifts for families who qualify.
Distribution dates have been set for Wednesday, Dec. 14 and Thursday, Dec. 15.
Registration opens on Monday, Oct. 31. Those wishing to register can pick up an application at the PCCSM free store, or COM. Complete and submit the application, along with proof of residency, to the PCCSM free store located at 327 S Springfield Ave. where they will be given a distribution voucher.
