Ask at your local Salvation Army office. The Salvation Army collects names of families in need of Christmas aid. Also, local churches do something similar. Other charities you may want to contact: Catholic Charities (you don't have to be Catholic to get help) and the United Way.

Find a local church and tell them what you are doing and they will help you. At my church, our Connect Group and Women's ministries adopt families and bless them abundantly. One year for Thanksgiving we went to a pregnancy center and blessed one family with a Thanksgiving Meal. Then we found out she had twins!

battered women's shelter (most of those women left with children and no money). you could really help take some of the stress off those moms.
