Elaine’s Kids Christmas Ministry

Elaine’s Kids Christmas Ministry was established by Elaine Powell in 2014 to bring joy to children in Highlands County. Starting with just a handful of kids, the initiative has grown remarkably over the years. Its mission is straightforward: to provide Christmas gifts to children who might otherwise miss out on the holiday cheer.

What makes this ministry unique is the overwhelming community support it receives. People from all walks of life come together to ensure every child in need gets a gift at Christmas. Volunteers gather in Elaine’s living room to sort through donated gifts and carefully select presents that will bring smiles to the children’s faces.

In 2023, the ministry celebrated a milestone by reaching 497 children. This impressive growth reflects the profound impact of Elaine’s Kids Christmas Ministry on the local community. By providing these gifts, the ministry not only brings joy to children but also alleviates some of the financial strain that families face during the festive season.

Elaine’s Kids Christmas Ministry embodies the true spirit of generosity and community. It is a testament to how a simple idea can transform into a powerful force for good. The ministry’s influence extends beyond just gifts — it fosters hope, happiness and a strong sense of community among those it helps. This heartwarming initiative reminds us that the essence of Christmas is about spreading love and compassion.
