What is Christmas in April?

Christmas in April is a non-denominational volunteer organization that repairs the homes of senior citizens who are either low-income and/or physically challenged so they may live in warmth, safety, and independence. After months of planning and preparation, Christmas in April culminates in a one day repair effort on the last Saturday in April.

Christmas in April relies on the community for support from volunteers to repair the homes, and seeks funding from businesses, corporations and individuals.

The success of Christmas in April is due to the cooperative efforts of the Prince George's County government, private businesses, civic and community organizations, churches and synagogues.

Christmas in April restores crumbling neighborhoods and homeowners pride and dignity. Christmas in April is neighbor helping neighbor...people helping people.
