Christmas Hamper Project 2023
This year, perhaps more than ever, the need in our community is dire. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in isolation, an increase in those seeking work, and a reduction in the ability of support agencies to administer to those in need. Also, this year, the effects of inflation have hit those with limited means in the most dire situation. Your contribution, at this time of year, can literally make a world of difference. Year after year, we hear incredible stories of generosity and gratitude. We hope we can count on you to help those in need this Christmas.
The success of this project depends on many volunteers to adopt, pack, and deliver these hampers. Equally necessary are the financial donations which allow us to purchase gift cards. If you would like to help out, visit www.centretownunited.org/index.php/xmashamperproject for more detials.
