Welcome to Pocono Christmas Jars 2024
What is a Christmas Jar ?
A Christmas Jar is a pickle jar, peanut butter jar, Mason jar or whatever else you have around to collect your spare change each day.All coins are dedicated to the jar, and during the week before Christmas you carefully select someone to give it to anonymously. Was a neighbor laid off? Is a coworker struggling with health problems? Has a friend lost a loved one?Simply put your jar on their porch, in their car, on their desk--wherever--and you could change their life for good!$50, $100, even $200, you'll be surprised how much change you can generate and how much you can affect someone's life.
Christmas Jar Display
We have created a Christmas Jar display here in the Pocono's at 359 Lower Lakeview Drive in East Stroudsburg (Miiddle Smithfield Twp.) PA. There you can pick up a FREE Christmas Jar that you can fill with your spare change to give to someone in need.
Opening Date of the Display
Our Christmas Jar display will begin operating on Thanksgiving weekend 2023 and will end on Christmas Eve or until we run out of Jars.
Christmas Jar Giving
Impact of Christmas Jar Giving
We have given out over 1,1500 Jars. If everyone who took a jar put just $25 in the jar, we would of given $37,500 to those in need
chapel of Hope
We are planning to construct a “Chapel of Hope”. next to where the Christmas Jar display is located, similar to the one pictured here. This Chapel will be a quiet place where someone can go and sit quietly, pray, or just enjoy the solitude, contemplating life’s many difficulties.
