OUR MISSION

The Great North Pole’s mission is to help children and families in need in Cass & Clay county. Our goal is to bring joy and the spirit of Christmas to every household we touch. We are able to do this through our generous donors, national and local corporate partnerships, other local nonprofits and hundreds of volunteers from our community.

WHO WE ARE

By creating these invaluable local and national corporate relationships and strong community partnerships the Great North Pole multiplies many times over the original monetary donations made and turning those funds into retail goods. By stretching every dollar further it allows us to help more families in need and provide not only basic needs to our community members, but also winter wear and gifts to the children of these families.
