12 Days to Christmas School Give Away
The Joy of Giving and Receiving
12 Days Before Christmas is an annual project hosted by Removing The Stigma (RTS) since 2022. The theme is taken from the all-time Christmas poem and song, “The Twelve Days of Christmas.”
Each year a local school is selected. The principal or school counselor of the selected school chooses up to 12 students they believe could benefit from the project. Those students with the greatest need, financially and emotionally. Once the students are selected Removing The Stigma staff and volunteers shop personally for each child. Over the past two years students have received coats, hats, gloves, boots, and toys. In 2023- an additional toy project was added. Each student had a chance to pick toys from a wagon full of toys, along with the ones they received wrapped. The wagon experience brought such joy to the children, RTS plans to embark on the same Christmas Wagon experience each year. Removing The Stigma, volunteers and staff deliver gifts to each student at the local school, 12 days before Christmas, and beyond until the beginning of the next year's school day.

The Joy of Receiving
Thank you 2023 twelve days to Christmas donors!
Your monetary and in-kind donations blessed 5 girls, and 6 boys in 2023. The children grades K through 8 received top of the line coats, hats, and gloves. Each child received a personalized bracelet with their names, hand-crafted by an volunteer from New Community Bible Fellowship Mighty Women of Valor. Each child received the traditional Connect 4 game, the younger girls received dolls, and the other girls received cosmetic gifts. The volunteers brought in a wagon filled with all sorts of toys, and the children picked out a toy of their choice. This was an exciting day for these children. They left overwhelmed with gratitude, and appreciation for the gifts.
