Mission

Christmas Wish Project of Tarrant County Mission Statement The mission of the Christmas Wish Project of Tarrant County is to support children placed in foster care in Tarrant, Johnson, Palo Pinto, Sommerval, Parker, Hood, and Erath Counties (Region 3B) by providing a specially “wished for” Christmas gift for them and lessening the burden on their foster parents financially during this time of year. Christmas Wish Project promotes the spirit of community giving to those foster children who are unable to be with their own families during the holidays and allows them the joy of knowing someone cares to provide them with a much-needed gift.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

include the Denton and Wise county areas in our service plan.

2. To continue to provide new books and pajamas for each foster child along with their wish gift.

3. To include family placements and extended care (aged out) foster kids.

Continue to recruit volunteers and donations. To write grants and make request for funding year round,
