All of us here at Doherty’s are honored to partner with The Christmas Store and United Church for another year of their annual tradition of helping families in need throughout Southern Wake County. Last year, the program helped bring Christmas to 396 families across Apex, Holly Springs, Willow Spring, Cary, Fuquay-Varina, Morrisville and New Hill.
We’d love for our Doherty’s friends and family to help make that possible again this year by donating new, unwrapped toys for children from birth to age 14. Please bring your donations to the restaurant by Sunday, December 6th.

about the program
The Christmas Store is a wonderful annual community tradition hosted by United Church in Apex, bringing neighbors together to make Christmas a little brighter for local families.
Throughout the year, local organizations like Neighbor Up, the Fuquay-Varina Emergency Food Pantry and the Holly Springs Food Cupboard work alongside families facing difficult circumstances. Local school social workers also help connect families who could use a little extra support during the holidays. Through these trusted community connections, families with children up to 14 are invited to take part in The Christmas Store, where they can select Christmas gifts for their children at no cost.
It takes a lot of helping hands to make it happen! Each November, local businesses, organizations and community members come together to fill the shelves with new toys and gifts. It's a community effort from start to finish, and every donation helps make the holidays a little brighter for a local child and their family.
