Neighbors Helping Neighbors have brighter Christmas

The purpose of the Neighbors Helping Neighbors have a “Brighter Christmas” is to make the community aware of special needs that are usually not addressed by existing service agencies. Thanks to the generosity and kindness of Randolph County citizens, many people have received assistance over the years through this program. During this holiday season, we are looking to serve folks of our community just as Brighter Christmas Fund has for many years. 

Neighbors Helping Neighbors have a “Brighter Christmas” is directed by a committee of service professionals. These volunteers represent many organizations, including The Randolph Hub, Randolph County Senior Adults Association, Randolph County Habitat for Humanity, Randolph County Veterans Council, Christians United Outreach Center and At-Large Community Members.

Applicants

The average NHN request is $250-$500. Please do not submit NHN requests for rent, utilities, Christmas gifts or things where programs are already in place to meet those needs.  

Go to www.mycuoc@triad.rr.com, click on the Neighbors Helping Neighbors link, print the application and complete or send a letter stating the information the application requests.  If you want an application mailed, call 336-625-1500 ext. 222 and leave your name and address. We will mail the application to you.

When a letter is received, the committee will review each request and determine which member is most appropriate to be assigned as the lead person. The committee will meet each week to review the progress of each request and its findings. The identity of the applicants, unless consent is given, will remain confidential. The Randolph Hub will publish stories based on applicant letters to show potential donors what special needs exist in the community and how the needs should best be met. Applicants will be informed in writing of the committee’s recommendations as soon as possible. If requests are found to be unsuitable, efforts will be made to refer the information to the appropriate human services agency.
