Our Mission
“Bedford Community Christmas Station is an all-volunteer, community-wide, non-profit organization which assists low-income families in the Bedford Community on a seasonal basis by providing a shopping experience characterized by choice and dignity. Serving families with children is our highest priority.”
“Bedford Community Christmas Station is an all-
"Bedford Community Christmas Station is located at 206 Washington Street in Bedford. It is set up like a department store, with sections for infants, girls clothing, boys clothing, teen clothing and gifts, toys, household items and food. All merchandise in the Christmas Station is new, with the exception of gently used coats that will be made available to any shopper that needs one. Each family that is accepted to shop at the Christmas Station also receives a box of food."
Donations can be mailed to Bedford Community Resource Center 403 Otey Street Bedford, VA 24523
As we enter our fourth year of operation in 2009, the Bedford Community Christmas Station Board of Directors would like to thank all of the churches, businesses, organizations, schools, individuals and families that make it possible for us to continue our mission. The generosity and compassion of the Bedford Community enables us to share the joys of Christmas with low-income families as well as families that experienced crises such as house fires, domestic violence, and injury of a caregiver. We appreciate the donors and volunteers that helped us provide gifts, household items, and food to over 1,000 Bedford residents in 2008. We anticipate serving a larger number of individuals in 2009 as more of our neighbors find themselves in need of assistance. With your continued support Bedford Community Christmas Station will respond to the growing need in the community and share God’s Blessings with others.
