We need your help on Saturday Dec. 20th for our one day Christmas Store for Sunny Hill and Golfview Elementary families in Carpentersville. This "invitation only" store will allow under-resourced families to purchase new children's gifts at 75% off retail. Buying their own gifts provides dignity to parents who have nothing to give at Christmas time.
In addition to the volunteers needed for setting up and running the store (see below), we need lots of help getting supplies and organizing a few components of the store. If you are interested in helping in the following areas or need more information, please let me know.
Thanks!
