Shining Star
Supplemental Holiday Program
Give Joy This Holiday Season!
The Shining Star Supplemental Holiday Program provides an opportunity for community members to purchase gifts for other local people who could use some additional support during the holiday season.
*All information is kept strictly confidential.
If you would like to nominate a recipient or apply for assistance yourself, click the link below or pick up a form at the Community Center. Priority will be given to South County applicants.
Applicants for support (Stars) send in a holiday wishlist. The Star recipient is then anonymously matched with a generous community donor who fulfills their wishlist! For children, this is in the form of gifts. Stars who are teens and young adults receive gift cards to their store of choice. We also accept monetary donations and a member of our team will do the shopping for you!
If you would like to be paired with a Star and help bring joy to Berkshire families this holiday season, click the Shopper Sign-Up link below or fill out a form in person at Berkshire South.

- Recipient Registration Opens: October 21st
- Purchaser Registration Opens: October 28th
- Recipient PICK-UP by reservation on Thursday, December 12th, and Friday, December 13th between 8:30AM- 5:30PM
Please Note: The RECIPIENT PROGRAM IS NOW FULL! We are not accepting a waitlist this year. We encourage families in need to contact your local family resource center for holiday assistance.
