You must be a Humphreys County resident. We help children from birth to 18 years of age (if still in school) and seniors 60 and over with financial need.

You must bring a photo ID. We will need a birth certificate for each child. If you have legal custody of a child, we will need to see the court document declaring guardianship. You must also show proof of Humphreys County residency, such as mail showing your current address (utility/water bill, etc.). Must also show financial need for the program, such as being a recipient of food stamps, other government assistance, or a current bank statement.

We normally do sign-ups the first part of November. Please see our important dates here. 

After program signups, all applications will be reviewed by our board and you will be contacted by phone if your application was not accepted.

You will be contacted to pick up your gifts as soon as we have all your gifts returned. Please do not come to pick up gifts until you have been contacted.

You should receive a phone call from us that your gifts are ready and at our office. Please do not come to pickup your gifts until you have received a call from us.

No, you can only receive assistance from one program each year. We work closely with the other assistance programs in the county and compare lists. If we find you are receiving assistance from one of the other programs, you will be contacted and removed from our program.
