The Collyer-Baker Christmas Cheer Fund will present a special evening of art, music and literature, on the evening of October 1st. The proceeds from this event will go to the creation of holiday baskets for our local families in need.

An Ossining merchant, Glendon Baker, who witnessed two children picking through a garbage pile, started the charity 100+ years ago. Last year over 370 needy families in the Ossining area received food baskets as a result of our community’s generosity.

The funds raised at this special evening will be solely used for the purchasing of food for the holiday baskets. Volunteers handle all administration efforts, and members of the Ossining Volunteer Fire Department pack and deliver the baskets. The main goal is to offer families in need, some Christmas Cheer, while respecting and protecting the dignity of the families.

Please help make a difference in our community by attending our special event, a celebration of the arts, (A compilation of local published authors and visual artisans) for an amazing cause. You will be contributing to the success of this superb evening, and bringing a family in need some holiday cheer.
