Pre-Wrapping Pre-Wrapping is what we do 2 weeks before the wrapping party to make sure that all gifts and clothing are organized for the big wrap. The items purchased off the trees at Wal-Mart are sorted and verified to make sure the sizes match up with each child and the gifts are balanced for the Family. Any family or child that has not been adopted out will also need to be shopped for and organized. This is a large effort by a lot of volunteers to make sure every thing is ready for the big wrap.

Who are we We are a 100% volunteer organization taking care of underprivileged children during the holiday season. The Lake Cities Spirit of Christmas is an independent, non-profit organization qualified by the IRS. There are many ways in which you can help us provide for the children. With the help of local churches and a canned food drive at the local schools, Thanksgiving meals are provided for the families. Volunteers wrapped over 3,000 gifts (in one evening) and food for the workers was provided by many businesses throughout the community. Each child received 2 sets of clothing, underwear, socks, shoes, jacket and 2-3 gifts.
