So, two years ago I posted on here for help to name a charity event to raise money for kids in unfortunate situations for Christmas. The few years prior to that I raised money through just GoFundMe me and was able to help around 10 to 12 a year. Well, I can't remember what user it was but they came up with the name Christmas Presence for my cornhole tournament and the last two years have been amazing. Two years ago we raised nearly 5750 dollars and helped 49 kids! This last year we raised over 8,000 dollars and helped over 65 kids have a Christmas and I have developed relationships with multiple schools around the area.

Now, for tax purposes and for others to be more willing to donate to the cause, I need to start a nonprofit and where else better than to go you guys for name ideas. I don't want to restrict myself to just Christmas Presence and would like to eventually venture out into other avenues of the unfortunate youth around the area(school supplies, coats, etc) but can't come up with a good name to name this nonprofit.

Some characteristics is that it's the 417 in missouri is where I have been operating but I don't want to restrict it geographically either.

Help me guys.

Maybe Mid-America Christmas? Give me another day to think of something else. But it is wonderful you are doing this buddy!

I like this one, a lot.


Keep hitting me with ideas and thanks for all the responses thus far!

I'll have to do my work in seeing if this is even available.

Thanks brother! I'll let you know.

I was thinking about naming it after my great grandfather who raised me as a kid and I was inseparable from cause he is the one that provided everything for me and was my best friend.

His name was Pete. I'm not sure how to insert his name into the name of the nonprofit.

I was thinking something like "Be a Pete Foundation" or something. What do you guys think? Got anything better?
