Jr. League of Kane and Dupage County has Things Wrapped Up!


Humanitarian Service Project would like to sincerely thank the Junior League of Kane and Dupage Counties for wrapping so many gifts for the Children’s Birthday Project. These wonderful women donated such a considerable amount of time in order to help these needy children in the program.

 The Junior League of Kane and DuPage Counties has a project called “Done in a Day” in which the group participates in short-term, hands-on volunteer projects that assist local charities. As part of this project, this past Friday the Junior League of Kane and Dupage Counties held a “Wrapping Party,” where the group wrapped 10 bags worth of presents for the Children’s Birthday Project. Each bag contains presents for a needy child, and, with the amount of gifts in each birthday bag, this group did a ton of wrapping! These gifts include 6-10 new toys, 6 books. The wrapping was done beautifully which will make the children appreciate the gifts that much more! After the wrapped gifts are returned to HSP’s center, additional items are added to create each child’s special Birthday Box including, stuffed animals, smaller “filler” gifts, school supplies, coloring books, and party supplies in the form of a “party in a box kit.”

If you would like to help out HSP by wrapping gifts please contact us at (630)-221-8340 or by e-mail hsp@humanitarianservice.org.
