Butler County Households Need Your Help This Christmas!

Butler County Visions of Wellbeing, with support from the community, will once again be sponsoring Christmas Cheer. On average each year we have about 200 Butler County Households that are identified by community partners, social service agencies, food banks, schools and churches as needing assistance during the holidays.  Last year we had over 300 applications.

B.C.V.O.W. will collect community donations which will be used to purchase gift cards for applicants who were approved for Christmas Cheer. We are hopeful that this will help those households to be able to better meet their basic needs and possibly free up some of their budget for special holiday purchases.  

If your household needs help during the holiday season, please contact any social service agency that you work with in Butler County to request an application.  This year's application deadline is November 7, 2025.   

If you would like to help those in need, please consider donating. For about $160.00, you can sponsor a family of four this Holiday Season. Christmas Cheer is an opportunity for your family, organization, class, church, or business to provide support for Butler County Households in need. A donation of any amount is appreciated.  You can give with confidence that 100% of your donation goes directly to helping families in need right here in Butler County.
