Kristi's Crew 2025

Kristi Elhard / 2025 BCE Families Campaign

Thank you for helping to support a local family who has fallen on hard times through no fault of their own! We look forward to providing them with the Best Christmas Ever!

This year we chose a family that reminds me so much of myself 4 years ago.  A young widow just trying to survive and figure out her new normal with her two young kids.  Let's make this the best BCE yet for Kristi's Crew and show this family what we are capable of!

About Kristi's Crew 2025

Our team is pleased to announce that we have again partnered with a local non-profit organization called Best Christmas Ever (BCE)! BCE surprises families during the holiday season who have fallen on tough times through no fault of their own. Our team is looking forward to surprising a local family with a Best Christmas Ever this holiday season! We aim to raise at least $5,000 and collect ten donated gifts per family member! The families that receive the Best Christmas Ever are chosen from nominations submitted to BCE. Nominations are open and can be submitted at www.BCEmovement.org. Our team will have the opportunity to select a family in early November. After that, we will display a BCE gift tree at our local business sponsor. Community members can visit the sponsor location, grab a gift tag and purchase a present for the selected family! Monetary donations will go towards the family's life-changing gift. This gift can help reduce the burden a family carries during difficult times. The financial gift may be used to purchase a new/used vehicle, pay medical bills, go towards their rent/mortgage, pay credit cards, pay utility bills, travel, etc. BCE does not pay phone bills, cable bills, court-related incidents, or construction projects. Additionally, BCE does not pay cash directly to families. We cannot complete this BCE without the support of our community. Thanks in advance for your help! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call me! BEST CHRISTMAS EVER IS A 501(c)(3) NONPROFIT. TAX ID: 46-4729005. **Disclaimer: 87% of all funds raised go directly to support your BCE Family. Funds may also be used to purchase any gifts that were not donated.
