Since 1998, the Moab Christmas Box House has served over 3,000 children, thanks to a unique and effective partnership between government, nonprofit, and community.
This journey began over 30 years ago when our President & Founder, Richard Paul Evans, wrote The Christmas Box, a story about the loss of childhood that touched countless lives and became a #1 New York Times bestseller. Inspired to help children, Richard and his wife Keri partnered with the University of Utah to ask:
“What is the single most important thing we can do for Utah’s abused and neglected children?”
In Moab, we provide safety for children, parenting classes for the community, foster care training and support, and healing during child abuse investigations.
This vital work is only possible because of the generosity of our partners and community. We invite you to join us in protecting the at-risk children of Grand County.
