For many children, this celebration wouldn’t happen without you. Your gift creates a joyful celebration of Jesus’s birth, with a nutritious meal, the good news of Jesus, special treats, and the assurance that they’re known and deeply loved by the people who care for them.
Every gift of $25 provides a Christmas party for 19 children!
Your secure, tax-deductible gift helps make this celebration possible.
Christmas looks different for many children.
While some families gather around full tables, others face Christmas with empty stomachs and little hope. Forward Edge partners with trusted local leaders to care for children day after day, meeting practical needs and sharing the hope of Jesus.
This Christmas, you can make it memorable.
Your gift helps create a celebration centered on Jesus’s birth—sharing a meal, Scripture-based encouragement, and meaningful moments many children would not otherwise experience.
Forward Edge’s Christ-centered programs, led by trusted local leaders, care for 6,700 children in eight countries while meeting daily needs and pointing kids to Jesus.
Children in our programs receive consistent care throughout the year, including meals, encouragement, and Scripture-based teaching. Local staff and volunteers invest deeply in each child, building relationships that help them feel safe, valued, and known.
These ongoing relationships make moments like Christmas especially meaningful. Because children are already part of a loving community, celebrations become more than a one-day event. They are a reminder of God’s love that continues long after the season ends.
Help a child experience the love of Jesus through a real celebration—food, fellowship, and the good news.
