Christmas gift apps

Once again this Christmas season, James Resource Network is blessed to partner with another agency in the area to be able to provide Christmas gifts for children of families in need whom we serve in the Denver Metro area!

The application process is easy, but must be done no later than Monday, October 29th
Delivery of the gifts will be on Friday and Saturday, December 14th-15th.. Someone 18 years or older must be home in order for us to deliver the gifts. Therefore, it is very important that all the contact information requested be supplied in full, including a good primary contact phone number and an alternate contact phone as well. We cannot leave items with neighbors, or on the front or back porch.

We will do our very best to provide the gifts that are requested. However, we are unable to provide the following items: Xbox, Game Boy, Game Cube, Play Station, MP3 Players, IPods, IPhones, Cell Phones, TV’s, Computers and Wii Game Stations.

Because we have a limited number of gifts for children, we will honor the applications on a first come, first serve basis. If you have any questions feel free email office@jamesresourcenetwork.com or phone the office 720-283-8832.
