How the Christmas Gift Fund Works

Your Gift Brings Joy and Hope to Children

Each Christmas, Compassion’s local church partners select meaningful gifts for every child in our program. Your donation to the Christmas Gift Fund ensures no child is left out.

Every child receives a gift.

When you give to the Christmas Gift Fund, your donation is combined with others to purchase gifts for all children in our program.

Personalized for each child.

Staff at child development centers personally know each child and select gifts based on their needs and wishes.

Meaningful gifts.

The most powerful gift is showing a child they're valued, especially at Christmas. Your gift may include toys, school supplies, clothing or even a Bible of their own.

Your Contributions Are Stewarded Wisely

Every gift you give through Compassion is handled with integrity and care. We follow strict financial guardrails to ensure accountability, transparency and the flexibility to invest wisely for long-term impact. Here’s a brief explanation of how funds are allocated:

In fiscal year 2025, 80% of every dollar went straight to program work through our local church partners — including education, medical care, nutrition, child protection and sharing God’s love with children living in poverty and their families.

The Value of a Christmas Gift

“Christmas is a moment that I always look forward to because Christmas reminds me that Immanuel came to atone for my sins." — Adel, 10, from Indonesia
