Christ Child Society of Cleveland

Over 100 years ago, Mary Virginia Merrick founded the Christ Child Society by enlisting friends to give assistance to poor infants and children living in the Washington D.C. area. Its first project was to prepare layettes for needy babies. Today, there are 40 active chapters of the Christ Child Society nationwide continuing this labor of love for children.

The Cleveland Chapter was organized by Mabel Higgins Mattingly in 1916. We are a non-profit association dedicated to serving at-risk children in the love and spirit of the Christ Child. In addition to providing layettes to infants in need, we have expanded our outreach to include assisting children of all ages through our many programs.

Our mission is to "foster a personal love of Christ expressing itself in service for needy children regardless of race, color, or creed."
