The Christmas Box House
The Christmas Box House Official Website
In 1998, founder and New York Times best-selling author Richard Paul Evans created a safe place for Utah’s children, an emergency shelter called The Christmas Box House, naming the charity after his first novel, The Christmas Box.
The Christmas Box International partners with local, national and international communities and groups to prevent child abuse and to improve the quality of life for children, teens and young adults who have been abused, neglected, or are facing homelessness.
Our motto is simple: every child deserves a childhood.
Since completing construction of three Christmas Box House children’s shelters, we continue to grow our programs. From providing needed children’s items through 10 community-based resource rooms, connecting teens aging out of foster care with resources, or making a Christmas morning bright, our programs aim to serve the same youth that inspired the first Christmas Box House.
