Bringing Joy and Hope: Christmas Wish 2024

Blog | Christmas Wish | Mission Trips | Wishlist Giving

Each holiday season, Frontier Horizon sets out to bring the magic of Christmas to children in need. We’re proud to announce that we’ll be traveling to Nicaragua from December 26th through January 2nd  and Poland from February 1 through February 7th to reach Ukrainian children displaced by conflict. These trips allow us to share the warmth of the season with kids who may otherwise go without, providing them with essentials, holiday gifts, and the unforgettable experience of choosing their own special items.

During our trips, volunteers will work closely with local communities in Nicaragua and a group home in Poland, supporting children who face extraordinary challenges. Christmas Wish gives each child the opportunity to choose toys, snacks, clothing, and other meaningful items, creating a holiday they’ll remember with joy. From dolls and puzzles to essentials like warm socks and books, these simple gifts mean so much to the children we serve. Each donation and act of kindness brings comfort and a reminder that they’re valued and cared for.

For over two decades, Christmas Wish has helped transform the holidays for vulnerable children, and the impact resonates deeply with every child, family, and volunteer involved. Your support ensures we can continue to make a difference in the lives of these kids, who deserve to feel the spirit of the season.

A History of Holiday Cheer: Frontier Horizon has been bringing Christmas Wish to children in need for many years. In 2023, these young Ukrainian children were overcome with emotion while receiving their gifts.

Fundraising Goal Progress

Thanks to an incredible $20,000 donation from the Brouwer Family Foundation, we’re well on our way to meeting our $70,000 goal for this year’s Christmas Wish trips to Nicaragua and Poland- where our goal is to bring Christmas cheer to 1,000 children in each community. Their ongoing generosity helps us bring joy, essentials, and holiday magic to children in need, and we’re so grateful for their support.

With $30,000 left to raise, every donation makes a difference. Sponsoring a child for just $35 covers essentials like clothing, hygiene products, and a special holiday gift. Join us in reaching our goal so we can brighten the holidays for as many children as possible!
