... ever caring, ever sharing
Our MissionThe Delaware Valley Children’s Charity is dedicated to bringing relief and assistance to children and families in need throughout the Delaware Valley. We have said time and again that a new winter coat or bag of toys may not change a life, but it can change a heart, and that is where it all begins. People caring about people, giving cause to hope and to believe.
Who we areOur organization works directly and solely to better the lives of underprivileged children. For the past twenty-six years, our annual Holiday Program has brought warmth and joy to thousands of area children in need. In 1991, The Delaware Valley Children’s Charity formally organized into a not for profit group, allowing the caring and sharing to continue 365 days a year. Since that time, we have assisted with requests from heating oil to hearing aids, and everything in between. The most basic of necessities are so often out of reach for those less fortunate; and equally as often they simply go without. Along with our sponsors, volunteers and contributors, we continue to work toward making these already difficult lives a bit brighter.
As a gift from one of our generous and tireless supporters, this website provides general information about the Delaware Valley Children’s Charity. It is intended to offer specific help and guidance for those participating in our 2011 Holiday Program. Welcome!
It doesn’t seem possible, but the 2010 Holiday Program was our 25th…and what
an amazing time it has been!
Most things are completely different now than they were with our very first Angel Tree...Semi trucks, rather than our own cars...over 6,000 children, rather than 6...and on and on. The one thing that has remained steadfast are the hearts of those helping and being helped. The desire of our sponsors to bring relief and joy is all-consuming, rewarding, and precious. For those being assisted, we know it is never easy to need or receive help. We thank you for allowing us to do what we can to make your lives just a bit easier.
Our sponsors, supporters, friends and family have led the way and we
couldn’t be more proud. Doing the math is truly overwhelming; tens of
thousands of children, hundreds of thousands of gifts…and all the while we
continue to keep true to the idea of one child, one change, one heart at a
time. This is truly the human spirit at its very finest.
From our hearts to all of yours, and from every one of the children who
would do so themselves if they could, we offer our deepest gratitude.
Thank you for your interest in the Delaware Valley Children's Charity! If you have any questions, or would like further information on how you might become more involved within your community, please contact us.
