This marks SERVE’s 30th year partnering with Callaway County residents, businesses, and organizations to bring joy and dignity to families experiencing hardship. Together, we provide gifts for children, stockings for seniors and individuals with disabilities, hygiene items, and everything needed for a traditional holiday meal.

We need your help to ensure every child receives a “need,” a “want,” warm clothing and a book.

If you’re able, please consider supporting this life‑changing program in any way you can. Here are several ways to get involved:

  • Adopt & Shop – Receive a child’s wish list and shop for their holiday gifts.
  • Sponsor – Choose a sponsorship level to help fill critical financial gaps.
  • Donate – Make a monetary contribution that supports any part of the Adopt‑A‑Family Program.
  • Collection Drives – Host a food, toy, or stocking drive. SERVE can provide barrels and pick up donations.
  • Volunteer – We need many helping hands in the weeks leading up to distribution day.

We know this year has been difficult for many, and we are deeply grateful for any support you can offer. To get involved, call 573‑642‑6388 or email oneserve@serveinc.net.

Thank you for your generosity, and warm holiday wishes from all of us at SERVE.
