Helping Hands holiday program connects Plumas County families with Christmas assistance

A warm coat, a tank of heating fuel or a toy under the Christmas tree can make a difference for a family heading into winter. The Plumas County Sheriff’s Employees Association is inviting neighbors to donate to the Helping Hands Holiday Program or register a family that could use some help this Christmas.

The association says it and its partners have helped families across Plumas County during the holidays for 45 years. Donations help provide food, winter coats, toys, heating fuel and other essentials. They also help local children take part in sports and other activities and support scholarships for graduating Plumas County seniors.

This season, the association is working with the Eastern Plumas Angel Program and other local organizations to get help to families who need it.

If your family could use a hand, or you know a family that could, you can register through the county’s program page. You can also use that page to donate or scan the QR code in the letter.
