Henrico Christmas Mother

  • The Henrico Christmas Mother for 2024 will be announced in May. She will be our speaker.


It's CHRISTMAS IN JULY for the Henrico Christmas Mother!

HCHS is sponsoring a Book Drive for the Henrico Christmas Mother! We'd love for you to join us in our efforts!

All children's books must be NEW. The Henrico Christmas Mother does not give used books to children.

  • Ages 0-2 - Board books
  • Ages 3-4 - Preschool - Lots of illustrations and early vocabulary
  • Ages 5-7 - Lower Elementary
  • Ages 8-10 - Upper Elementary
  • Ages 11-13 - Middle School
  • Ages 14-18 - High School

Graphic Novels are a big ask; they can be expensive and are very popular with Middle/High School age children. We are most in need of board books, preschool, upper elementary, and graphic novels.


We also collect gently used books for adults.


We have ample storage space so we can take large quantities of these. We ask that they are in good condition. Collection bins with the Henrico Christmas Mother logo will be provided.


For more information about the Book Drive, please call: (804)839-2407


A Few Helpful Book Drive Tips:


Ollie's has a nice selection of books for children at very reasonable prices and many are marked for age appropriate. Please consider participation for the Book Drive with your church or other organization. Arrangements can be arraigned for pick-up.
