What is Christmas in July?

Christmas in July is a consortium of Valley chiropractors who believe that you shouldn't have to wait until Christmas to engage in the spirit of giving. Each summer, this group bands together to provide support for La Mesita family shelter, the East Valley's only emergency shelter serving homeless families.

How does it work?

Each participating chiropractic office is holding a food and clothing drive, and part of their office fees are donated to the shelter.

How can I get involved?

There are lots of ways you can get involved!
