The Pierce County chapter of The Forgotten Children's Fund just celebrated our ninth year bringing
Christmas to deserving families in our area.  I
t all began Christmas of 1999 when a handful of dedicated volunteers
took up the cause.  That first year we delivered to over 120 children in 38 families.
Thanks to our committed
volunteers Christmas 2007 was our best yet, delivering to over 450 children in 151 families!

The Forgotten Children’s Fund helps struggling families in Pierce County make Christmas brighter
for their children.  With the continued layoffs and economic setbacks, it appears that this could be
another difficult holiday season for many families, and we are looking to you for support!

What we do…

§         Find families trying to help themselves, but still in need

§         Arrange for Santa & Elves to deliver wrapped gifts and food on Christmas Eve

§         Provide new winter coat, a bike if desired, blankets, food and at least three
new toys for each child

Who we are…

§         A non-profit organization with no administrative costs

§         A group that is supported 100% by volunteers

§         Founded in 1976 in King County; expanded to Pierce County in 1999

§         People who enjoy giving to others at this special time of year

How we’re doing…

§         Our ninth year in Pierce County, grew to over 150 volunteers

§         Christmas Eve 2007 we delivered to over 450 children in 151 families

§         Work closely with local agencies to find qualified, deserving families

 

How you can help…

§        WE NEED YOU!!! Volunteer your time to this worthy cause

§         Tax-deductible contribution

§         Locating families who are not being helped by other organizations

§         Support our annual KMPS Bike Drive in December by purchasing a bike for a child

§         Donate and/or attend our annual fundraiser

To see the sparkle in the eyes and the smile on the faces of children when Santa arrives bearing
food, blankets, bikes and gifts is a wonderful experience.  We hope you will join with us at this
special time of year to make the season brighter.

Volunteer Opportunities

“To believe in making wishes
and have faith they can come true,
To believe that you can find some joy
in everything you do,
To believe in giving gladly
for no reason, just because,
To believe in love . . . that’s what it means
to believe in Santa Claus.”
