Resurrection is teaming up again with Love Thy Neighborhood’s for our second annual Joy Drive: a holiday initiative to bring warmth, dignity, and joy to our Ocean Beach and Point Loma neighbors. Each December, we rally together as a community to collect toys and gifts for families who could use a little extra support during the holiday season.

Through generous donations and the help of dozens of volunteers, we transform these contributions into a pop-up holiday shop where families can “shop” with dignity at no cost. The experience is filled with holiday cheer, from Christmas music to coloring activities and sweet treats, making it a joyful time for all. 

Whether you give, volunteer, or spread the word, you’re part of making the Joy Drive possible.

Together, we’re ensuring that every neighbor feels seen, supported, and celebrated this holiday season!

To volunteer with Resurrection’s team, please talk to or email Stasi. There are many different roles to fill at all different times during the weekend. If you have a car, like to wrap gifts, have the gift of hospitality, or want to connect with those in need, we have a job for you! Please reach out!
