What an incredible day of holiday magic with our Jacob’s Chance community! 🎄❤️💚

This year’s Merry Mall welcomed 60 shoppers, each experiencing the joy of choosing gifts for their loved ones with confidence and plenty of holiday cheer. None of it would have been possible without our 100+ amazing volunteers who wrapped, supported, guided, cheered, organized, and made every moment feel special.

From creative crafts and visitors from the North Pole, to tasty treats to antique cars, Merry Mall 2025 was a beautiful reminder of what happens when community comes together with inclusion at the heart.

Huge thank you to Elizabeth Weis, Realtor for all her support leading up to this year's event. We are grateful for your passion and advocacy this holiday season and throughout the year!

Thank you to J.R. Tucker High School for hosting us again this year, and thank you to the incredible Alex Smith-Scales and Jai Girard for capturing these fantastic photos.

And to our volunteers, donors, and supporters, thank you helping us create a space where everyone belongs - especially during the holidays. Happy Holidays from Jacob's Chance!

Merry Mall is TOMORROW, and before the festivities kick off, we want to give a huge THANK YOU to a few folks who are making this event possible!

First, thank you to everyone who donated gifts from our wishlists. Because of you, every single gift this year was sponsored by our community. We’re incredibly grateful for your generosity and support.

We also want to give a special shoutout to the amazing team at Green Graphic Signs for sponsoring all of our Merry Mall printing. They donated every sign you’ll see at the event, and we’re so thankful for their continued partnership. (Be sure to check them out for their community-minded approach and high-quality printing!)

We can’t wait to celebrate with you all tomorrow! ❤️💚

✨ What an unforgettable afternoon! ✨

Our 3rd annual A Chance to Shine Talent Showcase was truly something special - and we’re still glowing from all the joy, cofidence, and creativity that filled the room!

Thank you to our friends and partners at St. Christopher's School - Richmond, VA for running lights and sound for us, and opening up your beautiful recital hall for this year's show.

To our performers and artists: thank you for sharing your talents and lighting up the stage (and the art gallery!) with your incredible work. You made the event magical.

To the families, volunteers, and supporters who helped make everything happen - from decorating, organizing the art show, building displays, decorating, assembling raffle baskets, and keeping the event running smoothly - we are so grateful. And a special shout-out to Mark for absolutely rocking it as our emcee!

Huge appreciation to Alex Smith-Scales (Squared by Squared Photography) for capturing the heart of the evening. 📸 We’re excited to share some her incredible photos with you!

As always, thank you for supporting Jacob's Chance and helping us create spaces where everyone can shine. We can’t wait to see you at more programs soon - and especially at next year’s talent show on November 22, 2026! 💙💛
