Sandusky County Christmas assistance applications due Nov. 16

Sandusky County households seeking holiday gifts and food assistance have until 9 a.m. Nov. 16 to apply for Community Christmas, according to Great Lakes Community Action Partnership.

The program page links to the 2026 electronic application. Only one application is allowed per address, including when two families share a home.

The form requires county residency and at least one school-age child or younger child, or a household member older than 65. Applicants must provide the last four digits of Social Security numbers for everyone listed, a working phone number and an electronic signature.

Children 12 and younger can submit gift wishes and clothing sizes. Ages 13-18 may be included for gifts if enrolled in high school. Requests are not guaranteed to be filled.

Notification information conflicts: the program page says Dec. 1, 2026, while the 2026 form retains a Dec. 10, 2025, sentence. Confirm notification timing with the organizer. The application deadline agrees on both pages.

For help applying, notification questions or sponsorship information, call or text 567-342-1639 or email communitychristmas.sc@gmail.com.
