Be a Sponsor
Would you like to help keep hope alive in the heart of a child or an elderly person this holiday season? Sponsor opportunities are available from November 1 - December 15 each year. For more information, click here or see below.
In our community right now, there are people who are not expecting Christmas to be very bright. They may have fallen on hard times. They may be ill, alone or elderly. They may be unemployed, unable to work or unable to walk and therefore unable to provide Christmas for their children.
As many Alamance County residents have done in the past, you can make a difference this holiday season by sponsoring a child or elderly person through Christmas Cheer. Clubs, churches, businesses, office groups, families, extended families and individuals are invited to experience the joy of giving this Christmas.

Sponsor Feedback
“We were extremely pleased with the family we sponsored for Christmas. Christmas Cheer matched us with a family that was in need and fit our level of sponsorship in terms of the monetary commitment we felt comfortable with. It felt great to know we were really making a difference for another family in our community.”
