Moving Forward
2020 was a tough year for everyone and we were unable to hold our annual stocking stuffing event. Fortunately, though, almost 800 sheltered and unsheltered homeless children still received a holiday stocking thanks to 4 volunteer groups who went above and beyond to safely fill and deliver stockings. THANK YOU!
We are happy to announce that this year's annual event has been scheduled for December 10th and 11th. We have added 50 children to each age group as there may be a surge in homelessness this year. Therefore, as we move through the next few months, remember that there are many ways that you can help. Please go to our “Ways You Can Help” page to see what your options are. Additionally, there are a couple of opportunities to volunteer in a more long-term position as a Table Captain. For more information regarding what a Table Captain does, please call Bobette Scheid 206-232-9854.
