A Community Christmas of Stark County was founded over 60 years ago to provide vital assistance to those in need during the holiday season. We are here to ensure that every individual we serve has the ability to celebrate the joy of Christmas through our Adopt-A-Family, Christmas Giving Center, Senior/Disabled Adult, and Mitten Tree programs.

A Year of Incredible Giving and Gratitude
It never ceases to amaze me how the Stark County Community responds to the needs of others! They certainly did for A Community Christmas (ACC) clients in 2025. Thank you to the many generous Stark County residents, businesses and organizations that provided ACC with financial support, and thehundreds of volunteers that gave their time to make our programs possible!
As a result of the community’s generosity in 2025, ACC was able to provide a brighter Christmas for 1,907 children, 871 adults, and 527 senior citizens/disabled adults, for a total of 3,305 individuals. The letter below (from a past client) helps show the impact ACC programs can have on our clients. ACC programs exist solely on donations, so we amped up our fundraising efforts during 2025, and will continue to do so in future years. This effort helped fund the 23.7% increase in the number of seniors/disabled adults served in 2025, compared to 2024. In sum, $47,060 was spent on 2,487 food vouchers and gift cards for the 527 seniors/disabled adults and 707 Giving Center families in 2025. Plus, over 7,340 toys from Marines Toys for Tots, and almost 10,518 taxable, non-food stamp items (donated and purchased for $6,857.54) were distributed through ACC’s Giving Center program.
Please consider joining our team as a 2026 donor or volunteer, and help ensure every Stark County resident in need has a Merry Christmas. Email us at email@acommunitychristmas.org, call us at 330-454-3841 (office reopens Sept. 21), use the enclosed envelope, or visit www.acommunitychristmas.org.
