Christmas Mother Fund

Your donations to the Richmond Christmas Mother Fund help provide a brighter holiday to families struggling to make ends meet. The fund provides toys, clothing, food and other assistance to families in need.

The fund was established in 1935 by the Richmond Times-Dispatch and The Richmond News Leader.

The Salvation Army now administers the fund as part of its citywide Christmas programs.

This year's Christmas Mother is Alice Goodwin, who serves on the Massey Cancer Center advisory board and is a member of the board of trustees for The Virginia Home. She will be making appearances in the community throughout the holiday season.
