This holiday season, The Midnight Mission is setting the table for joy, hope, and togetherness on Skid Row.On Sunday, December 21, 2025, our gymnasium will come alive with the sights and sounds of Christmas — festive meals, warm smiles, and the wonder of Santa’s Toy Village, where children can pick out gifts and meet Santa himself.
At A Place at Our Table, everyone belongs — families, neighbors, and friends from across Los Angeles who come together to share the spirit of giving. For many of our guests, this celebration is more than a toy or a meal. It’s a reminder that they are seen, valued, and loved.
For more information about joining us for a Christmas morning filled with connection and compassion, contact William Woods, Community Engagement Coordinator, at 213-624-9258 x1242.
We’re collecting toys now to ensure that every child who walks through our doors leaves with joy in their hands and hope in their heart. Toy Drop-Offs: Donations are welcome through Wednesday, December 17, 2025, at The Midnight Mission, 601 S. San Pedro Street, Los Angeles, CA 90014.
Pick-Ups: Limited pick-ups may be available in December on a first-come basis (staffing is limited).
