Four Head Start preschools with 2 boxes of toys each.

One in-home daycare for the children of Expo teen moms.

River Hills School received two boxes of toys.

“Moving On” program run by church member, Janis Wren. One box of purses and accessories.

Quakerdale received one box of gifts for teen girls.

Our Grundy campus received two boxes of gifts for teen boys that was distributed to boys in needs.

$3,840.75 was available to share with the following organizations:

A $50 check went to each of these schools' libraries. (Each of these schools was represented by a parent who shopped at the Christmas Store on December 11. Parents wrote the school their child attended on the back of their ticket when they checked in.)

The remaining money was gifted to three places: Cunningham Elementary (most of the families who shopped came from Cunningham), Boys & Girls Club, and Harvest Vineyard Church.

It was awesome to see the Christmas Store continue to bless others the week after the actual event itself.

Have a Blessed, joy-filled Christmas!
