Donate to Chanukah in Carefree

For 10 years, Chanukah in Carefree has brought neighbors together for eight nights of light, music, and community. This celebration is led by volunteers and open to everyone.

As the event has grown, so have our costs. Your gift helps keep the celebration safe, welcoming, and memorable for every family who joins us.

• Safety & Security
  Your donation helps pay for event safety, security, and the logistics that protect our guests.

• Lighting & Setup
  Gifts cover the menorah, lighting, staging, and everything that brings the nights to life.

• Community Celebration
  Support helps us host a free, family-friendly gathering for the whole Carefree community.

Receive a 10th Anniversary Coffee Mug

To celebrate 10 years, we created a commemorative coffee mug. Donors who give $100 or more will receive one as our thank-you for adding to the light of the season.

After you donate, a volunteer will contact you to arrange pickup. Mugs are available while supplies last.
