URBANA - Cunningham Children's Home is collecting holiday gifts for the youth and families it serves, according to a Nov. 1 post on the nonprofit's website. The post lists four ways to help this season.

Donors can buy unwrapped gifts from the home's general Christmas wish list, or order from its Amazon wish list and have items shipped directly to Cunningham. People who want to fill a specific youth's wish list can contact Ginger Mills at gmills@cunninghamhome.org or 217-337-9074. Workplaces, churches, gyms and other groups can also host an Angel Tree, using gift tags the home provides.

The home is also collecting new or gently used items for its Kids' Shop, where youth choose gifts for their loved ones with help from staff. The post lists bath and body sets, candles, inexpensive phone accessories, wallets for teens and hobby items as favorites.

Gifts and Kids' Shop items go to the Spiritual Life Center, 1301 N. Cunningham Ave., Urbana, by Friday, Dec. 4.
