Our hearts are full this week as hundreds of volunteers have gathered to help us distribute gifts to more than 7,000 children. A special shoutout to the Cisco team--they came 70 volunteers strong to help with our Angel Tree program and then the next day provided us lunch. Wow! The truth is this program simply would not work without this kind of support. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for showing your kindness and concern for those less fortunate in our community. #Christmas2024 #AngelTree #Volunteersmakeadifference

It is crunch time for us...only four days until we start distributing Angel Tree gifts to more than 7,000 children and we still have nearly 200 that have yet to be adopted. Please help us make Christmas magic happen for these kids. Adopt an angel! https://lnkd.in/epGmk2f5. All gifts must be received by Monday, December 16.
