The JCCB is a grass roots agency that provides holiday assistance each year to 10,000-12,000 low-income residents of Johnson County, Kansas. The JCCB runs a 10-day Holiday Shop in December where pre-qualified clients shop by appointment. All clients are below 150% of the poverty level and reside in Johnson County. The Holiday Shop is similar to a much smaller version of a department store. Each client may pick out: groceries personal care items (items such as soap, shampoo, diapers, toilet paper, hygiene products, toothbrushes and much more) holiday gifts (often it is the only holiday gift a child receives) books children’s clothing hats, gloves and scarves a gift for themselves winter coats (for many children it will be their only winter coat).
