As we prepare for the Holiday season, this year the Hot Shots would like to share with others in our community. In partnership with the Kellin Foundation and Hands for Hope, we are sponsoring 2 local families, so that they may have the Christmas that otherwise may not be possible.
There are 3 parts to our outreach mission.
1. Canned Food Drive
2. Gifts for the Children
3. Care Packages for Caretakers
Starting Monday November 11, we will begin collecting for all 3 parts. There will be labeled boxes in the BLUE ROOM (next to Cherry's stall) for each part. Attached you will find links to our FIRST families requests, a Sign Up Genius for the gifts, and an Amazon registry for gifts and care packages. We will receive the requests from our SECOND family by Wednesday Nov 13 and then all links will be updated.
This will go until Thursday December 5. On Friday December 6, Abby will be heading to the Kellin Foundation. We would love to have some of our Hot Shots come with as well. An updated time will go out that week.
On the Sign Up Genius, please be sure to put both your name and the gift(s) you have bought. You are not required to use the Amazon registry, but please let us know as soon as possible if you bought something in store that is on the list. Once something is bought from the registry, it will be removed from the list so that we do not have a lot of duplicates. Along with gifts there are clothes in each kid's size on their list as well. When you bring your gift, please have it labeled with the child's name it is for.
Please note that we are not able to give any gift cards or money to the families. If you would like to donate money to the cause, please reach out to Abby, as then she will go on a shopping trip for anything left on the list. They have also asked that we not wrap the gifts, but to please send wrapping supplies ie: tape, scissors, wrapping paper, bows, bags, tissue paper, etc. These can all be put in the box for the care packages.
If you have any questions or ideas please reach out to Abby at either 231-720-5016 or [email protected]
