Jesus said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Parents understand that during Christmastime. Nothing is more precious than watching your child open a gift on Christmas morning that you hand-picked from the toy store (or hand-clicked on Amazon!). It’s a joyful time to see the wrapping paper fly off in tatters and watch that smile spread from ear to ear as they finally hold in their hands the thing they’ve always wanted. 

​

We believe no parent should have to settle for Christmastime handouts, and that’s what Parent Shopping Night is all about. You deserve the opportunity to shop for your child at Christmastime, handpick those special toys, and do it all within your budget. And here’s what’s cool: we’re passing on every dollar spent at Parent Shopping Night to buy food for our community by partnering with the Bridge Food Center to put affordable, nutritious food on the tables of hardworking families like yours.
