Christmas Depot
At Our Headquarters in Fort Leavenworth, KS
​​​
At Stronghold, the holiday season is about more than meeting immediate needs—it’s about bringing joy, hope, and dignity to military families during a time that can be especially challenging. Our Christmas Depot transforms our Fort Leavenworth headquarters into a festive and wondrous holiday experience, where registered families can receive gifts, including a 'need', often an essential item like a winter coat or boots, and a 'want' to help make the holidays feel extra special.
​
In addition to these personalized gifts, we provide essentials like diapers, toiletries, and food staples to ease the financial burdens of the season.
​
Our goal is to create moments of joy, connection, and support, so families can focus on what matters most—being together during the holidays, free from financial stress.
​
This initiative honors the sacrifices of military families, ensuring every child experiences the magic of the season. If you’re a family in need, a donor wishing to sponsor, or an organization wanting to contribute, we invite you to register below and help make this Christmas unforgettable.

Sponsor a child or family
This holiday season, you can make a world of difference by sponsoring a military child or family through our Christmas Depot program. By helping fulfill a child’s “need” for winter gear and their “want” for a special gift, your generosity creates lasting memories and brings joy to those who serve. You’ll help bring magic and dignity to military families as they celebrate the season together.
