Christmas Store

The CAM Christmas Store provides an emergency, free shopping experience for those less fortunate in San Antonio facing a severe crisis. More than 1,600 children will have an incredible Christmas despite the fact their families are facing a serious financial crisis. Parents are able to select gifts, books, stuffed animals, socks, gloves and other goodies that their children will like. Join us in sharing the joy of the season and making a difference in the lives of San Antonio families by donating new toys and/or hosting a toy drive at your home, work, or church.

CAM urges our supporters to start these toy drives so we can supply the Christmas Store with a plethora of toys for families in need. We need gifts for boys and girls ages 0–18 years. All toy donations need to be new and unwrapped. We can also use new or used Christmas lights, decorations or gift wrapping – even partially used rolls of wrapping paper! Another way our supporters can join in on all the merriment is to volunteer to help with the setup of the store and then assist the families when choosing toys during their appointment. If you have questions about how to engage with us during Christmas time, please contact our Special Events Coordinator, Sylvia Garcia, at sgarcia@cam-sa.org.

2025 Is Ready!

All toy donations need to be new and unwrapped. Please drop off any donations to the CAMpassion Warehouse (starting November 18 – December 16) at our downtown campus at 110 McCullough Avenue, Monday-Thursday between 8:00am and 3:00pm or Fridays between 8:00am and 11:00am.
