Since 2020, the Peninsula Community Foundation of Virginia has been home to the Children's Holiday Fund. Building on a program launched 100 years ago, the Children's Holiday Fund supports greater Peninsula nonprofits that provide holiday-specific programs that meet essential needs and bring joy to children and young people and their families during the winter holiday season, Thanksgiving through the end of December.
This program specifically seeks to support children and families at the most basic level of our community by directing resources to organizations that directly serve those most in need—particularly families who might otherwise go without assistance from other sources.
