FLAGLER COUNTY, Fla. — Christmas Come True is inviting the community to laugh, give back, and spread hope during its annual Christmas in July Comedy Show on Friday, July 17, 2026, at the Hammock Community Center in Palm Coast.

The popular fundraiser supports local families facing hardship throughout Flagler County while bringing together residents for an evening of entertainment, food, raffles, and community spirit.

This year’s event will feature live comedy sponsored by Cristy B Comedy, with headliner A. Ali Flores and featured comedian Alexander Garbowski, both known for engaging audiences with relatable humor and energetic performances.

Guests will also enjoy A Taste of the Hammock food stations provided by Bartlett’s Restaurant, a silent auction featuring items donated by local businesses, raffles, and a 50/50 drawing.

A special highlight of the evening will be the official launch of “A Circle of Hope” Prayer Bracelet Initiative, a new outreach program designed to unite individuals, churches, schools, businesses, and community organizations through prayer and compassion.

Participants will be encouraged to wear a bracelet as a daily reminder to pray for families in need, support local children and parents facing crises, stand in solidarity with those experiencing hardship, and transform compassion into action. Organizers say each bracelet represents a family story, a prayer, and a commitment to hope.

The event also celebrates the long-standing partnership between Christmas Come True and the Adams Cameron Foundation, a sponsor that has helped support the fundraiser for several years. Organizers recognized the contributions of Ron Harlow, whose vision helped inspire the creation of the annual event and establish it as a meaningful community tradition. As Harlow begins a new chapter that includes marriage and relocation, the organization expressed gratitude for his dedication while welcoming Cynthia, who will continue supporting the event and its mission.

For 17 years, Christmas Come True has served families throughout Flagler County, providing personalized holiday meals, clothing, shoes, toys, gifts, bicycles, and essential items to thousands of local children and families. The organization has also offered year-round emergency assistance since 2012 through partnerships with local schools, churches, businesses, and nonprofit organizations.

The Christmas in July Comedy Show begins at the Hammock Community Center, 79 Mala Compra Road, Palm Coast, and proceeds directly benefit the Christmas Come True mission of helping families not only survive difficult circumstances but begin again.
