This great group of volunteers spent part of Thanksgiving Eve helping to sort Toys that we received from our County Wide Collection held earlier this week. We are also on Facebook so be sure to check out and “LIKE” our page.
The Project Gifts distribution is coming up on Saturday December 17th.
Today this great group of students from SMAHS helped to sort toys at Gifts for Elk County, under the direction of their teacher Rotarian Greg Snelick. This is our first group of helpers for this year.
Great job everyone!
On Sunday Project gifts received a load of toys from the Fox Township American Legion Post 511 secured through the efforts of Jim Steinbiser and crew as they coordinated with several local organizations to collect toys for us.
Pictured from Project Gifts is Bill Cheisa, Duane Duffy, Don Wilhelm, and Bob Roberts, along with Jim Steinbiser and Lana Vendur from the Fox Township American Legion Post 511, and Trooper Chad Himes representing the Pennsylvania State Police.
Project Gifts is grateful for the efforts of Jim and everyone who helped to make this collection a success.
