Christmas 2025 This week, we were able to deliver donated money for Christmas to fifteen families in Curry County. Several anonymous donors throughout Curry County and beyond, donated cash to be given to families that could use a little extra help during Christmas. We were asked to deliver the cash. As I have in the past several years, I asked friends on social media to nominate families and this year I received about forty nominations. Out of those nominations, we chose fifteen families based on the information that was provided. We wish we could have help all who were nominated, but money only goes so far, and every cent of donated money was given out. We would like to wish everyone a very happy holiday from all of us here at the Curry County Sheriff's Office. And a huge shout out to the people who donated the money, for without them, this would not have been possible. Featured News by Curry County Sheriff
