The Junior League of Orange County, California, Inc. presents The 38th Annual The Christmas Company® 2013

Please visit www.shoptcc.com for more details. 

THE PURPOSE AND GOAL: Now in its 38th year, The Christmas Company is the major fundraising event for the Junior League of Orange County, California, Inc. (“JLOCC"). Funds raised during The Christmas Company are used to further the JLOCC's mission: Promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women, and improving the community through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers. The members of the JLOCC share a vision of a community in which the health, safety, and education of all individuals are promoted and supported. Over the years, the JLOCC has contributed thousands of volunteer hours and over $7 million, raised largely through The Christmas Company, to the community through its projects, programs and members.

JLOCC COMMUNITY IMPACT: We effectively train our 600 volunteers to make an impact that will have a lasting benefit in Orange County. In 2012, our volunteer programs affected the lives of over 1,800 children in need. With your support, we can continue to help children and their families by developing programs and providing funds and volunteers to our community partners, which presently include The Academy of Orangewood Children’s Foundation, Crittenton Services for Children and Families, Orangewood Children’s Home, The Raise Foundation, Human Trafficking Education and Awareness, Blind Children’s Learning Center and the Down Syndrome Foundation of Orange County.
