Bonham, Texas -- Everyone is invited to attend the 10th annual Spirit of Giving Community Christmas Party on Saturday, November 23 from 10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. The parking lot of First Presbyterian Church at the corner of 9th and Center Streets in Bonham will be filled with new and gently used items.  

Everyone who attends, regardless of age, will receive five tickets to “purchase” anything they want for FREE.  Items large and small have a “cost” of one ticket.  No income limits are imposed, and no paperwork is required.
Many local churches and organizations have been collecting items all year for this special event.

Items available might include holiday decorations, furniture, diapers, toys, linens, household goods, kitchen
baskets, Kleenex, new towels, socks, gloves, blankets, cleaning supplies and much more!  

Hot dogs and fixings will be provided by the K5 Fannin Radio Club.  Cookies, hot chocolate and water will also be available. 

Drawings will be held for new bicycles; last year we gave away approximately 97 new bikes! If you would like to donate a bike or funds to purchase a bike, you are welcome to do so. We will have a container to store them beginning September 25.

If this is something your church, organization or family would like to be a part of, mark your calendars and just show up on the morning of November 23 with your items, a table to put them on, your church or organization’s t-shirt and/or banner and a Spirit of Giving!
