Shepherd’s newly revamped Christmas Festival brings the sights, sounds, and flavors of the holiday season to life! Families will enjoy Christmas lights, cookie decorating, ice skating, and more. They expect about 500 participants and need volunteers to assist with setup and activities throughout the event.

The Christmas Store is our largest event of the year. Parents in our programs are invited to “shop” for toys donated through our annual toy drive, selecting gifts for their children to open on Christmas morning. The store runs December 19, 20, and 22, with volunteer shifts available throughout the day. Volunteers can sign up for a 1.5-hour shift to help wrap gifts or assist families while they shop.
