Share the joy of Christmas with children and families in Chicago!

This year, Village Church is partnering again with By The Hand to provide Christmas gifts for 100 students and 50 caregivers! Learn about BTH here. 

How It Works

As By The Hand continues to grow, they're changing how gifts are provided. Instead of shopping individually for children, you can sponsor as many students or caregivers as you'd like, and VCB will purchase the gifts in one bulk order.

Our Club JAM students will help wrap the gifts before the Christmas celebration on December 5!

Two Ways to Participate

1. Sponsor a Student or Caregiver

Choose how many students or caregivers you'd like to support using the questions below. We'll take care of the shopping and wrapping.

2. Join the Christmas Celebration — December 5

We'd love for you to join us as we celebrate Christmas with the families served by By The Hand! Instead of spending time shopping for gifts, consider spending that time with the families themselves. We will meet at VCB at 9AM and caravan to By The Hand’s North Austin facility in Chicago to celebrate Christmas with students and families and bless them with gift-giving, games, crafts, and most importantly, the Gospel.

Please use the questions below to let us know how you'd like to participate. You can sponsor gifts, attend the celebration, or both!

Thank you for helping us make Christmas special for these students and families!
