One City. One Mission. Every Child Matters!

Operation Cover Chicago 2026 | $100,000 Fundraising Goal

Every child deserves the joy of Christmas, and together, we can make it happen!

For over a decade, Operation Cover Chicago has brought hope, love, and thousands of Christmas gifts to children and families throughout Chicagoland.

This year, we're on a mission to raise $100,000 to bring Christmas joy to 20,000 children and families across our communities. With rising living costs and financial hardships, many families are struggling just to make ends meet. For some children, Christmas morning may come without a single gift.

But together, WE CAN CHANGE THAT!

Every Child Matters. Every Gift Counts.

This is more than a toy giveaway. It's about reminding children:

YOU ARE SEEN. YOU ARE LOVED. YOU MATTER.

Every donation brings us one step closer to our goal!

Here's how you can help:

$50 — Helps sponsor 1 child

$100 — Helps sponsor 2 children

$150 — Helps sponsor 3 children

$200 — Helps sponsor 4 children

Your generosity helps provide toys, supplies, and the resources needed to make this celebration possible.
