Unfortunately, many children in Sumner County have little or no Christmas experience at all. Gallatin Sertoma Club desires to change that by launching and supporting Christmas Caravan for Kids, to help raise the needed funds so that some of the less fortunate children in Sumner County could have a better Christmas.
Nearly every dollar raised goes to provide Christmas for each child each December, chosen through a very accurate and strategic process that qualifies them. They are provided dinner by a local business while meeting their shopping sponsors and visiting Santa for group photos. They are then taken on a shopping trip with their adult shopping sponsor via our entertainment coach sponsors. Each year our kids receive not only a shopping trip to buy whatever they want up to a certain amount, but other nice surprises provided by local business donors and other raised funds.
Our desire is to increase the number of kids we can help each year. The amount of money each child receives and the number of children we are able to help depends on participation at events, corporate sponsorships and the additional activities surrounding it. This only happens because of the generosity of local individuals and business owners who give generously of their time and funds.
We do all that we can to make sure that every dollar counts toward our main goal, putting a smile on a child’s face for Christmas! Because of you, another child can have a better Christmas!
Don't miss this year's event the Monday before Christmas.
