OCDC’s Christmas Hope Festival
Since 2017, the OC Dream Center has worked to bring hope to families in our community during the Christmas season.
The Christmas Hope Festival was created from a simple purpose: to remind families that they are seen, supported, and not alone.
Each year, we bring together local organizations, volunteers, donors, and community partners to create a meaningful Christmas experience for families who may be facing financial hardship or difficult circumstances.
At the Christmas Hope Festival, families can receive gifts, connect with valuable community resources, enjoy a day of celebration, and experience the kindness of people who care about their community.

Christmas Hope is made possible because our community comes together.
Local Nonprofit & Community Partners
Together, we create moments of joy, build meaningful connections, and remind families that hope is still here.
Christmas Hope is a reflection of what can happen when a community chooses to come together and care for one another.
Thank you for standing with our community
Christmas Hope 2026
This year, we’re coming together once again to bring hope, joy, and practical support to families in our community.
With fewer organizations and community programs able to provide Christmas toys this year, more families may be left without gifts under the tree. Christmas Hope is here to help fill that gap.
Our goal is simple: to make sure every family who registers has the opportunity to experience the joy of Christmas and receive toys for their children.
Requirements to Receive Toys*:
Registration in advance is required to receive toys
Children must be present at the event
Because our goal is to make sure we have enough toys for every registered family, we encourage families to register as soon as possible.
*Toys are distributed on a first-come-first-served basis, while supplies last. Please plan accordingly.
Help Us Make Sure No Child Is Missed
This year, we’re expecting a greater need for Christmas gifts as fewer toy distribution opportunities are available throughout the community.
Your support can help make sure there are enough toys waiting for the families who register.
Whether you donate, volunteer, or simply help spread the word, you can be part of making Christmas brighter for a family in our community.
Together, we can bring Christmas Hope to families in need.
If you or your organization would like to host a toy drive at your location, please email info@ocdreamcenter.com for details on how to participate.
