Last year we helped 2500 people and our goal for this year is 3500. Donations are greatly appreciated. We need new toys for all age groups, warm clothing items, coloring/activity books, coloring tools (crayons, colored pencils, markers), and donated used books for all ages.
We need help setting up December 16th-18th, help w/ the event on December 19th-21st, volunteers to be Disney characters, and help tearing down December 21st (after 3 PM) and Dec 22nd. We also need hairdressers/barbers to give free haircuts to kids. If you are in high school and need community service hours, we will double your hours for helping with this huge event! If you have enclosed trailers we could really use your help taking everything from storage on Tuesday the 16th to Friendship hall and then back to storage on the 22nd.
Our fundraising goal for the 2025 event is $30,000. With your generous donations we will be able to rent our venue, purchase new toys for all age groups, warm clothing items, coloring/activity books, coloring tools (crayons, colored pencils, markers), cookie decorating supplies, decorations, and warm food that will be passed out to the attendees.
