PARK CITY, Utah — Operation Hope is an annual winter holiday gift-giving event whereby the Christian Center of Park City (CCPC) receives donated items from the community at large, which are then given to at least 700 families and 2000 children in Summit and Wasatch Counties. Toys are due December 8.

• Bring new, unwrapped toys to the CCPC Main Office Monday – Friday, 10 am – 5 pm.
• Host a toy drive at your business or in your neighborhood, social group, or faith community.
• Click here to shop their Amazon Wish List.

On December 4, in Wasatch County, participants will receive gift cards of $75 per child so parents can shop for their children’s gifts in plenty of time for shipping and wrapping.

On December 14 and 15 in Park City, they will hold their traditional “toy store” event with toys, books, winter clothing, and more for registered families at the CCPC Event Space upstairs. 

Financial donations, which may be made by clicking here, allow CCPC to purchase last-minute gifts and event supplies, donations help keep this event running smoothly year after year.

The CCPC writes, “There is no doubt that the Christmas season can be a difficult time of the year for some families. It is our goal at CCPC to provide an opportunity where burdens can be lifted and hope can come alive for everyone in the community. Our Operation Hope program is designed to do just that by providing toys for every child in need in Summit and Wasatch County. For the past 16 years, CCPC has provided a toy store where parents can come and select, at no cost, gifts and toys for their children. It is a truly magical experience where we can meet people at their point of need and see the inexplicable joy of the parents and children served.”

The CCPC provides assistance to families, regardless of religion, on a year-round basis.
