Jan. 14, 2026 – During the 2025 season, the Downs Family Christmas Light Ministry, along with its visitors, contributed $23,097, which is doubled in impact thanks to the Regional Food Bank’s Holiday Match, and 6,935 pounds of food to the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma. These donations will help the Regional Food Bank provide 144,361 meals for individuals facing hunger in central and western Oklahoma.

The annual holiday light display, located in Norman, features more than 18 miles of lights synchronized to holiday music. While admission is free, visitors are encouraged to make a monetary or food donation to the Regional Food Bank when they visit.

“In the 18 years that the Downs Family Christmas Light Ministry has partnered with the Regional Food Bank, they have contributed more than two million meals to Oklahomans facing hunger,” said Stacy Dykstra, chief executive officer of the Regional Food Bank. “We are so grateful for their efforts in giving back to our community, while helping guests create meaningful holiday memories.”

Since 2007, visitors to the display have contributed more than $537,000 to the Regional Food Bank. Learn more about the Downs Family Christmas Light Ministry by visiting downsfamilychristmas.com.
