This year, we’re thrilled to combine Giving Tuesday with our annual Christmas fundraiser. Hosted by The Arc of Bradford County’s Board of Directors, The David Dodge Christmas Fundraiser features dinner by Hills BBQ & Catering, a Christmas carols performance by individuals served by The Arc of Bradford County and the annual much-anticipated cake auction.

The annual Christmas Fundraiser was renamed in 2023 in memory of long-time board member, David Dodge. David dedicated over 40 years to The Arc of Bradford County and advocating for individuals with differences. He passed away on September 5, 2021.

What is Giving Tuesday
Giving Tuesday is a global day of generosity that inspires people to give back to their communities. By donating to The Arc of Bradford County on this day, you’re joining a powerful movement to bring joy, empowerment, and hope to those we serve. 

What to Expect
Our Christmas fundraiser is an opportunity to come together as a community to support a cause that matters. With delicious cakes donated by talented local bakers and businesses, you’re invited to place your bids and enjoy a holiday auction that’s sure to be a sweet start to the season. This year we will also be auctioning off handcrafted items from our woodshop,  Each cake and woodshop item has been thoughtfully created, and every dollar raised goes directly to supporting The Arc’s vital programs and services.
