Welcome to the County! Each year, the Huron County Christmas Bureau, which is organized by Rural Response for Healthy Children, fundraises to provide gift cards for local grocery stores and toy retailers to Huron County families. This ensures every family in our region has food on the table and gifts under the tree at the holidays. You can donate to the Christmas Bureau to support local families! But if you are finding it difficult to cover costs at the holiday season, learn more about how to register (scroll down to Register).
