This is what happens when a community comes together with open hearts. ✨❤️

Through the generosity of supporters across our region, NVCSS Adopt a Family served more than 250 families and nearly 900 children across Butte, Shasta, Tehama, and Trinity Counties. Families will be opening presents and feeling supported this Christmas because our community chose to show up and give.

This would not be possible without the incredible businesses, families, and individuals who stepped in. A special thank you to RAD Studio Architecture, FemFit Redding, and Ferris Wheel Kids for leading with generosity and making a meaningful difference for local families.

Thank you for helping make the season brighter for so many. ✨🎄

At NVCSS, we believe caring for our community happens through partnership. 💛 We’re grateful to share this opportunity from one of our referring partner agencies. There are still 26 children waiting for their wishes to be fulfilled. Even one sponsor makes a difference.

If you’ve been wondering how to help right now—this is it. 💛

Northern Valley Catholic Social Service is honored to recognize Monsignor Russell Terra, Father Michael Kiernan, and the late Deacon Michael Evans as our 2025 Caritas Award recipients.

In the Catholic tradition, caritas means love in action. These founding leaders embodied that spirit through their faith, compassion, and commitment to serving others. Their vision helped lay the foundation for NVCSS and continues to guide our mission today.

With deep gratitude, we honor their lasting legacy and love in action across our communities. 💙

NVCSS Adopt a Family helps local children who need it most. When you shop at Ferris Wheel Kids, you receive 10% off your purchase and your generosity goes directly to a family in need.
