The excitement continues here at HSP as we prepare for
tomorrow’s Boxing Party and Senior Delivery Day and carry on with Christmas
Offering preparations. To help us
prepare, a number of volunteers have contributed their time at the center
today.
Among them was a group from Kia Motors of America and
Initiative (a partnered ad agency of Kia).
The twenty-two volunteers spent their time sorting produce in
preparation for tomorrow’s senior deliver day and helping with giving tree
donations intake. Their three and a half
hours of work went a long way in helping us prepare for the eventful weeks that
lay ahead of us!
Two
additional groups joining us today come from US Cellular and the Bloomingdale-Roselle
Rotary Club. The groups each consisted
of eight people and volunteered five hours cumulatively. They too helped process the intake of
hundreds of giving trees and gift sorting.
The
help of all of these groups, and the other various volunteers that contributed
their time today played an essential role in preparing for tomorrow’s Boxing
Party and Senior Citizen Delivery Day.
At the Boxing Party, we will be doing a final organization of all the gifts for the
first group of families we are serving.
This includes sorting the gifts, checking that the gifts are complete
and adding to any that aren’t and then bundling them by family to ensure easy
distribution on December 14th and 17th.
Thank
you again to all of the wonderful volunteers that helped out today!
