Thank You Gregory Middle School!

Humanitarian Service Project would like to extend our deepest thanks to the student council of Gregory Middle School in Naperville for donating 100 toys to our Children’s Birthday Project. The students brought in the toys as part of an “It’s not your birthday” party. The party was just like any other birthday party; the kids played games, and ate cake. However, since it was an “It’s not your birthday” party, all of the gifts brought were donated to us to get out to needy children. Laurie Zalanik, the student council advisor, said “we like doing projects for the HSP since the students can have fun socializing and do great things for the needy.” We at HSP love doing projects with Gregory Middle School too, and want to give them our deepest thanks. It’s great to see young people engaged in reaching out to those in need.

The toys donated will go straight to the needy kids in our Children’s Birthday Project. As part of the program, the children in the Children’s Birthday Project get a 25 pound box full of toys and other goodies on their birthday, as well as, gifts at Christmas. This generous donation comes in at a great time, as we are just starting to get ready for Christmas. If you would be interested in conducting a toy drive, like the great kids in the student council of Gregory Middle School, you can learn more at our website: http://www.humanitarianservice.org/getinvolved/toydrive.html.
