As the holiday season approaches, we would like to highlight several meaningful ways to help brighten the season for relatives in need, which are being offered by the Phoenix Indian Center.

Significant impact is made through the support of community members, and participation in this year’s holiday initiatives is welcomed. Several opportunities have been developed to allow support to be provided according to your own time and preference:

1. Adopt-A-Family: Spread holiday cheer by adopting a family this Christmas. Complete this form to be matched with a family as soon as one becomes available. You’ll shop for gifts and essentials to drop off at the Phoenix Indian Center or arrange a pickup.
2. Food Donations: We are collecting non-perishable food items and household essentials through December 10. Donations can be dropped off during business hours. Need assistance on arrival? Give us a call — we’re happy to help.
3. Toy Donations: Donate new, unwrapped toys or gift cards at the Phoenix Indian Center through December 10. You can also shop our Amazon Holiday Giving Wishlist to have gifts shipped directly to us. Click here for details.
4. Charitable Tax Credit: Make a monetary donation to our Holiday Giving Program to support warm clothing, essentials, and food packages for families in need. Your contribution may qualify for the Arizona Charitable Tax Credit. Click here to donate.

Our deepest appreciation is extended to everyone whose kindness helps lift up our relatives during this season. Any questions or requests for supportcan be shared by calling 602-264-6768 or emailing communitysupport@phxindcenter.org.
