This amazing event continues and the support from families, churches, and businesses, keeps on growing!

We are currently serving 270 children and our desire was for each child to receive at least 4 gifts. For many of the kids we serve, these are the only gifts they receive this time of year. Thanks to the generosity of so many, we received approximately 1300 gifts! Our building was overflowing with toys/clothes/gift cards and for 2 days our conference room was filled with people sorting and wrapping presents!

Our staff love delivering these gifts as they are continually greeted by smiling faces. Families are in awe of the generosity of others.

Once again our families have been blessed and we are grateful. Merry Christmas from all of us at ECFA to all of you!
PAJAMAS!!
What would the holidays be without new pajamas? All of the children in our care, from infants on up will recieve pajamas to keep them cozy on cold winter nights.

While we frequently say this, it remains true. We can’t do this alone. So many of you come alongside us and your support makes all the difference in the lives of the families we serve.
Thank you to Erickson Elementary in Bloomingdale and St. Petronille in Glen Ellyn for all the pajamas. May your New Year be blessed.
Approximately 1300 gifts donated!
