Spreading Holiday Cheer Through Community, Celebration & Giving
Every December, our community gathers to embrace the warmth of the season while making a meaningful difference. The 1882 house foundation’s annual 12 Bars of Christmas Charity Crawl & Toy Drive invites friends, neighbors, and supporters to join in the festive spirit, enjoy a joyful evening out, and donate toys that help brighten the holidays for children and families in need.
Join us as we turn celebration into compassion and continue our tradition of supporting families and strengthening our community.
