Christmas in July

Christmas in July comes early this year!

Help us stock the toy room for our annual YMCA Neighbor to Neighbor Christmas program by shopping our online registries during summer sale days like Target Circle Week and Amazon Prime Day - both held June 23 - 26, 2026. Or, keep the momentum going all the way through the end of July!

We've created online wishlists for the items and age groups needed the most. Shop online from anywhere, and items will be shipped directly to the Y.


YMCA Neighbor to Neighbor Christmas Program

About the Program

For more than 30 years, the YMCA Neighbor to Neighbor Christmas Program has provided families in need with the joys of a traditional Christmas.

As we reflect on the holiday season, we are reminded of the incredible generosity that made it so special. 

Your support of the 35th Annual YMCA Neighbor to Neighbor Christmas Program brought joy, comfort, and hope to 359 local families and 795 children across our community. Because of you, families woke up on Christmas morning to beautifully decorated trees, thoughtfully chosen toys (4,770 distributed), and warm holiday meals provided by Publix, during a season that can be especially challenging.

While the holidays mark a special moment, your impact continues well beyond December. The YMCA remains alongside these families throughout the year through youth sports, family programs and community events that strengthen connection and create opportunity. This program is about more than gifts - it’s about neighbors showing up for neighbors. On behalf of the YMCA team and the families you supported, thank you for the care, compassion, and commitment you share with our community.
