National Christ Child Society
National Christ Child Society is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping children and families-in-need across the United States.
We are a volunteer force, 5,000 members strong, with 44 chapters in 19 states plus the District of Columbia. In 138 years of service, we have logged millions of volunteer hours and distributed millions of essential items.
The National Office provides our chapters with guidance, opportunities to connect and grow, leadership development, program support and communication tools to help chapters impact their communities.
By fostering collaboration, sharing best practices, and amplifying our collective voice, the National Christ Child Society empowers every chapter to carry forward our mission with confidence and unity.
