We are excited to continue our partnership with a group of other local churches and organizations called “Community Table” to help families and children in the community. Each organization is making a different contribution, and Fairhaven’s commitment is to provide toys and gifts. The store will take place December 7-11.
You can help make Christmas special for families in our community by purchasing gifts or serving in a variety of meaningful ways.
Purchasing Gifts
To participate, register to purchase gifts. Choose how many $25 gifts you’d like to purchase, then select an age and whether you’d like to shop for a boy or girl. Every gift you choose helps a parent experience the joy of giving something special to their child.
Last year, the Community Table served approximately 900 children, so every gift you donate makes a big impact on the inventory we can provide at the store.
Purchase new $25 gifts/toys. No used items. Please do not purchase Bibles, as our partners are providing these. Toys and Walmart $25 gift cards are encouraged.
To make this experience more meaningful, we suggest visiting a local store and purchasing your gifts together with family and friends
