Thanks to the generosity of many, last year we were able to help 72 families during the holiday season. This year's goal is to enable even more families to have a joyful Christmas -- to provide toys, clothes, food, and other special needs which will make the season brighter for the children and their parents.
As we prepare our hearts for Christmas, we invite you to help us create a Christmas Celebration for families that do not have the resources to provide their own. We will be glad to accept monetary donations, or if you wish to do the shopping yourself, call us for details on toys, clothes, food, or special needs. We would like to have all donations collected by Wednesday, December 7.
Make this advent a special one by helping us make the holidays brighter for our families.
To contribute to the Adopt a Family project, please call Maribel Panuco at 785-825-0208 ext. 215.
Or mail your donation to:

Somehow, not only for Christmas, but all the long year through,
The joy that you give to others, is the joy that comes back to you.
And the more you spend in blessing, the poor and lonely and sad,
The more of your hearts possessing, returns to you glad.
-- John Greenleaf Whittier
