ABCCM’s Christmas Angel Program will be holding enrollment at the four Crisis Ministry locations November 20th – 23rd during each site’s regular hours. Cumberland Crisis Ministry at 24 Cumberland Avenue, South Crisis Ministry at 10 Buck Shoals Rd, and Hominy Valley Crisis Ministry at 1914 Smokey Park Hwy are open M-F from 8:30-4:30. North Samaritan Crisis Ministry at 403 Weaverville Hwy is open M-F from 10:00-2:00.
Enrollment will be for families with crisis needs––those struggling with enough income for the basic necessities such as food, housing, clothing, and utilities. Through the Christmas Angel program ABCCM provides Christmas presents via our four Crisis Ministries, our families at the Steadfast House, and our Veteran families through Supportive Services for Veteran Families.
Parents will apply in person during the three days enrollment from November 20th-23rd to access eligibility. All enrollees will be counseled in person on the day of enrollment or receive a call back to determine eligibility.
Christmas Angel is also seeking sponsors to make Christmas brighter for families in crisis. You can participate by providing presents for the children in a family, making a donation, bringing in new, unwrapped toys or items, or by being a volunteer. Contact Brad Owen at brad.owen@abccm.org or 828-259-5300 to become a Christmas Angel sponsor or a volunteer.
