In a vital community partnership, Asheville Media Group has teamed up with Eliada Homes—an organization providing year-round care, stability, and support for youth ranging from infancy through age 18—to fulfill the wish lists of 400 local children in need.
The Critical Need for Community Support
For many of the youth residing at Eliada, the gifts provided through this campaign will be the only ones they receive this holiday season, underscoring the critical nature of community generosity.
This year’s effort is made possible by dedicated sponsors: John McClung Roofing and Asheville Holistic Dentist.
🎁 How You Can Fulfill a Holiday Wish
Community members are asked to step forward now to ensure all 400 children receive their gifts. All gifts and contributions must be received by Tuesday, December 10th, 2025.
The campaign is being heavily promoted by Asheville Media Group stations, including Mix 96.5 and 98.1 The River, to maximize community awareness.
You can help in two primary ways:
Sponsor a Child's Wish List:
Donate $200 to the Holiday Wishes Fund to cover one child's full list of requested gifts.
Shop the Amazon Registry:
Select a specific, curated gift from Eliada’s Holiday Wishes Amazon Registry.
Get Involved Directly
For individuals or groups looking to make a larger impact by sponsoring a child or coordinating a program effort, the Eliada Development team welcomes direct contact:
