2012 COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS CARD
Since 1985, the Vallejo Times-Herald has raised more than $700,000 from an annual holiday appeal known as "The Community Christmas Card" to generate contributions from businesses and residents to help Vallejo residents in need of food, clothing and shelter. Donations can be made online to the Vallejo Times-Herald Community Christmas Card Fund by simply filling in the donated amount under "Make a Donation," on the top right-hand side of this page.
Since 2003, the Solano Community Foundation has managed the
Vallejo Times-Herald Community Christmas Card Fund. This year the drive will benefit the Christian Help Center, a homeless shelter, the Sparrow Project, which provides thousands of meals each year to the homeless, the Vallejo Salvation Army and the Florence Douglas Senior Center.
Throughout the 2012 Christmas Card drive, The Times-Herald will be publishing stories about the selected beneficiaries so donors can become acquainted with them.
All names of donors will appear in the Times-Herald in a special Christmas Card on Tuesday, Dec. 25.
