Christmas House — Local services in Everett

I am already low income and still never ask for help each year. But this year my EVERYTHING was taken from my car in middle of night and I reached out. They were so kind saying they would point me in right direction and so on. Now its xmas and I have yet to here from anyone. I wasn't asking for anything but help to point me where to go that's it. And I know this is gonna make me sound like an ungrateful mother but every year without a doubt we donate and help as much as we can now I'm stuck, scared and afraid my kids will think its their fault for being "naughty" I'm just praying they will be grateful for what I can put in their stockings. I feel defeated with are morning mass being taken now this. This is more of a vent than anything else in sure christmas house has help 100's, if not 1,000's of family's each year god bless and I hate what this holiday has turned into but I also can't and wont let mine feel left out. It's one thing they have had to look forward to this past year. I have lupus so its had to get out as much as I prob...

Bring ID, proof of income, and proof of residency. Show up between 6:30 and 8am to get your number/ticket. It will have a return time listed on it. Come back a half hr before your return time to register then shop. Items and choice are heavily limited but generally it's still worth the trip.

There's a lot of good people here doing a lot of good work....

The last couple years that I have had to come here all the staff was wonderful and I have only had great experiences. Several of the staff went above and beyond to help me get great items for my daughter. They helped me look for certain books and even going in the back to find me the right size in boots to fit her and even bringing out more items from the back. They definitely made Christmas happen for my family without the help and all thhe dotations I wouldn't of been able to provide such a wonderful Christmas....
