Christmas Charities Year Round – Giving All Year Long

Christmas Charities Year Round

Step inside Christmas Charities Year Round and you will find something more magical than the Christmas season… giving all year long.

You will see children receiving much needed clean clothing, adults receiving durable medical equipment to aid with mobility and everyday tasks, teens volunteering their time, and much more.

Since 1949, CCYR has been assisting those in need in Madison County by providing basic needs. We are dedicated to ensuring those in need receive basic necessities, distribution of clothing, school supplies, and durable medical equipment, clothing delivered to our schools, and Christmas assistance to children and seniors to fulfil our mission: To improve the quality of life year-round for Madison County residents in need by providing program services at no cost.

​At CCYR our programs are based on the needs of the community and foster the community to assist those in need without judgement, to build confidence and dignity, aid where it is needed, and at no cost. We provide programs that provide pathways to help people lead, live, and serve no matter where they are from or what challenges they face. We do this by partnering with people and organizations who understand that building a better community begins with providing basic needs to our youth and those that are underserved. We want to offer the community a place where people can get the clothing, durable medical equipment, support, and confidence they need to live a better life.

How can you help?
Give the gift of basic needs year round – donate clothing for our clients to ‘shop’ at no cost in our clothing rooms.
Give the gift of basic needs at school – donate school aged clothing, school supplies, and hygiene items that our Mobile Closet delivers to Huntsville City and Madison County schools.
Give the gift of Christmas celebration – starting in October, donate new toys and gifts to provide Christmas to children 2-18 or adopt a Senior.
Give the gift of mobility and healing assistance – by donating unused medical equipment. We will clean and make sure each item is in working order and will distribute to those in need at no cost regardless of income or health insurance status.
Give the gift of making the world a greener place – by donating unwearable clothing and other unusable textiles to our recycling program.

CCYR is a 501c3 non-profit organization in Madison County. We have 4 full-time staff and 100’s of volunteers that offer daily assistance to all of our programs throughout the year. Help us continue our mission by donating.
