Volunteers serve as greeters at the front door of Chi Omega Christmas Market.
Chi Omega Christmas Market organizers have selected 13 nonprofit agencies to receive funds from this year’s event, and 2024 will be year of firsts all around.

- Behind Every Door Ministries, Inc.,**
- Bonton Enterprises, host of Bonton Farms,
- Children’s Craniofacial Association,**
- Family Compass,
- Genesis Women’s Shelter & Support,
- Make-A-Wish North Texas,

- Texas International Theatrical Arts Society (TITAS),**
- The Stewpot,**
- Together We Thrive,**
- Women in Need of Generous Support (WINGS)** and
- Young Women’s Preparatory Network.
Collegiate scholarships will also be awarded.
“Each year Chi Omega Christmas Market supports a diverse array of nonprofit organizations that represent some of the most critical needs in the Dallas community, as well as collegiate scholarships,” said Erin Fischer, 2023-2024 beneficiary committee chairman and Dallas alumnae president elect. “We are so grateful to our community, shoppers, patrons and sponsors who support the market and allow us to donate essential funds to these deserving beneficiaries.”
In its 46-year history, COCM has distributed more than $10.4 million to 146 different Dallas-area beneficiaries targeting arts, civic, education, and health and welfare.
Dallas Market Hall is at 2200 Stemmons Freeway, and shopping dates are September 26-28.
