Holidays are an amazing time of year! It's time for family, friends, and loved ones to gather and spend quality time with each other. There is also pressure to make your family have a great holiday and often circumstances can slow that desire to only a dream. The Holiday Help Group is a collaboration of local individuals, businesses and organizations to charitably provide relief to our fellow Blairsville community members in need. By working together we can bring holiday cheer to families that don't have the means due to layoffs, family/financial hardships or poverty. And by teaming together, we can make a difference!
 

      Last year we were able to support six different families in need due to everyone’s generous donations! A large meal was provided to each family, along with some extra food items and gifts appropriate to the children’s ages for each family selected! This year we intended to select and support ten or more families and we need your support to do this! 100% of all items and/or funds will go to those in need! Being we partnered with a local nonprofit church  (Mercy Hill Ministries) your financial gift is also tax deductible if you would rather financially support the purchasing of gifts and/or food for a family in need (donation link below)!
