Saint Nicholas Project

The Eblen Charities Saint Nicholas Project provided assistance for over 2100 families (6489 children) last year by providing toys, clothing and other items during the holiday season. The Saint Nicholas store is open for two weeks prior to Christmas and parents can begin to sign up online at the beginning of November.  

​

Special thanks to the annual Smokey Mountain Toy Run (Saturday, November 1) and the Ingles Magical Toy Drive (Thursday, December 4 through Saturday, December 6 at the Ingles on Smokey Park Highway) and the many individuals and businesses throughout the community and across the country who help us make the holidays a little easier and brighter for many families in our area.

​

Thank you to our generous community here in WNC and beyond for being so generous last Christmas season.  We were able to help over 2000 families (over 6000 children) have a little brighter holiday.
