It may still feel like summer outside, but we’re recruiting Christmas elves!

SEA’s Project Christmas is matching sponsors with Shelby County children who could use a little extra magic this year. We’ll give you a child’s wishlist, and you get the fun part: shopping for gifts picked with that child in mind.

Your kindness can give a parent who’s facing a tough season some breathing room and the chance to enjoy Christmas morning magic with their child.

Sponsor on your own, recruit your coworkers, or assemble your most festive group of friends.
