Our Story
Helping Waukesha County Children Since 1949
Since 1949, the Christmas Clearing Council of Waukesha County has been promoting and coordinating the giving to families in need during the Christmas season. We provide a clearinghouse that matches families with area groups, families, businesses, and individuals who wish to help people less fortunate in our community. In 2019, we coordinated giving to more than 1,900 families and nearly 4,300 children in Waukesha County.

Meet the Staff
Christmas Clearing Council of Waukesha County (CCC) staff members work diligently to promote the mission of CCC in the community, with clients and the media.

Executive Director
Sarah Hein
I am involved with CCC because it’s important to find a cause that’s greater than yourself to work on personally, but also as a family. Everything we do at CCC stays local, so there’s a lot of pride in knowing what we do supports our neighbors close to home.

Assistant Executive Director
Deb Kucek
I am involved with CCC because I am trained as an engineer, and I have a great appreciation for efficient and effective operations. I remain amazed at what has evolved from the beginnings of this organization decades ago. The idea that we have a countywide system; that every deserving family has the opportunity to receive gifts for their children; that our sponsors and donors can be sure that their donations go to families who are truly in need - it all seems like such a simple idea. Clearly it isn’t, or every county in the country would be doing this!

Data Administrator
Andrea Landowski
I am involved with CCC because I believe in what the organization stands for.

Community Outreach and Services Coordinator
Tracy Walther
I am excited to be a part of CCC, helping to support area families during the magical time of Christmas. Unfortunately, times of celebration for some can be times of stress for others. I am so grateful to be a part of an amazing team that strives to relieve some of that burden.
