The deadline for Potter County families to take advantage of the school shoe program offered by Christmas House has been extended until Thursday, August 7. Sending children back to school with new shoes has been a focus of Christmas House for more than 25 years. This project is made possible by the generous annual contribution of the N.D.H.P. Motorcycle Club.

Only families who live in Potter County are eligible and the project is for children in preschool through grade 12.

A parent or guardian will need to call Christmas House by the end of the day on August 7 to make arrangements for ordering the shoes. The telephone number is 814-274-0825. Please leave a detailed message with your name and your telephone contact and we will return your call.

Christmas House is a non-profit organization piloted by volunteers and fueled by the generous support of individuals and organizations in Potter County and beyond. The First Presbyterian Church in Coudersport (402 N. Main Street) offers us space in their basement as our headquarters. Our entrance is on the north side of the building and is accessible by elevator if necessary.
