Shepherd’s special events are designed to provide a little relief from the everyday stresses caused by poverty. Through special events, Shepherd’s neighbors come together for food, fun and laughter. Most importantly, however, special events help to provide HOPE.
Fall Festival – A safe, family-friendly alternative to Halloween for children in preschool to 6th grade. It features a Trunk-or-Treat, food, crafts, games and other fun activities for our neighbors.
Baskets of Hope – Through partnership with Indian Creek Christian Church, over 800 volunteers fill and deliver Thanksgiving dinner baskets to area residents. A basket includes all of the ingredients and supplies for families to cook a Thanksgiving meal together.
Christmas Kid’s Shop – Allows the students the opportunity to experience the joy of gift giving, by selecting presents for their parent(s)/guardian(s). too.
Christmas Festival – Families enjoy entertainment, a meal, family photos, and activities together. The Christmas Festival also serves as an opportunity for parents to sign-up for the Christmas Store.
Christmas Store (Parent Shop) – A unique event that empowers parents to be able to provide Christmas for their children. Parents select toys and other necessities, such as gloves/hats, socks, and underwear.
