Holiday Giving Program
Our Holiday Giving Program matches local donors to families in need served by our agency in order to provide gifts and other holiday essentials. The volunteer committee meets year-round to coordinate the program. Additional volunteers are needed in November and December to assist with short-term tasks such as sorting and wrapping gifts; setting up and staffing the gift distribution center; and staffing “shopping days” where staff can select gifts for clients.
