Our 2025 Christmas Toy Drive has recently concluded with resounding success! CHS was able to provide gifts to more than 200 children and hundreds of families in our community. Santa and Mrs. Claus were on hand to greet the children and their families, making the day even more special.

What an amazing time we had! We would like to express our sincere gratitude to our dedicated Outreach Team, all of our staff and volunteers, and our generous community supporters. Thank you for coming together to ensure that every child-especially those facing challenging circumstances-experienced the joy of the holiday season. Happy Holidays to all!
