There are underserved Wright City families who desire help with children’s Christmas presents under the tree. The pantry is partnering with the Wright City Parents as Teachers and its director, Kamie Williams, to connect with these families in need.
The pantry will help donors adopt a family that matches the resources donors can provide. A list of suggestions will be given with clothes, toys and needs. Donors can also provide a financial donation to provide gifts for a local family.
All donations to Kamie Williams by Dec. 9 at the Wright City Middle School. For more information, contact Kamie Williams, 314-496-5525, kamie.williams@wrightcity.k12.mo.us
The Christmas Toy Drive is not just about the presents that children receive under their tree – it is about the gift of hope and wishes fulfilled.
Drop off containers have been placed in businesses across Wright City. Donors can drop off a new, unwrapped toy in any of these labeled barrels until Dec. 12. For more information, contact Kelly Hill, 636-745-2514, khill@shelterinsurance.com.
For more information on any of these programs, contact the program leader or Pastor Joe Purl, 636-295-0540, joeandkimpurl@gmail.com.
