🎄 Bring Joy to a Child This Christmas

The holidays should be a time filled with laughter, love, and joy — but for many families in our community, this season can be filled with worry instead. At Christian Outreach in Action (COA), we believe every child deserves to experience the magic of Christmas.

Each year, COA distributes toys to over 300 families and nearly 1,000 children across Long Beach and Signal Hill. Parents and guardians register each child — from newborns to age 16 — and can even request a specific toy. Then, on Saturday, December 20th, our cheerful Elf Volunteers personally deliver the gifts directly to their homes, bringing smiles and hope to families in need.

This year, we urgently need to raise $20,000 to make this happen. COA has been hit harder than ever, and without your help, many children may go without a single gift this holiday season.

Your donation will help us purchase:
🎁 Educational toys and craft kits
🎨 Dolls, trucks, and LEGO sets
🏀 Soccer balls, footballs, and basketballs
👕 Clothing and board games
…and so much more!

💖 From October 13th through December 1st, COA will be hosting a Toy Drive — and there are three ways you can help bring joy to a child this Christmas:
