Covenant House Texas (CHT) opened its doors in 1983 to provide shelter for homeless, abused and abandoned youth ages 18 - 20. After more than 30 years of service, CHT is still one of the only service providers in Texas of its type, offering an extensive continuum of care to the homeless youth population in Houston/Harris County.
The Holiday season is just around the corner and each year Covenant House Texas (CHT), with the help of Special Santas, help brighten the holidays for the homeless and runaway youth in our care. The Special Santa Program is a com-munity effort that brings love and joy to all of the youth we serve! Last year’s Special Santa Program was a great success making the holidays special for over 90 youth. This year, we anticipate the holiday program to be even better!
Donate your time this holiday season between December 8 th and December 13 th by helping us organize the gifts we receive for our youth. We can also use your help between December 19 th and December 21 st to wrap gift for our youth.
