With the Holiday season upon us, it is that time of year that the Cypress Axillary always exhibits that extra generosity for the children served by the Boys & Girls Aid. How do we help?
We purchase Holiday gifts. If you did not get a gift tag at the November Luncheon, you can pick one up at Leslie Walker’s front porch. To drop the gift off you can take it to the December 13th luncheon or have a friend take it. Lastly you can drop it off at Leslie Walker’s house by December 12th. Be sure to complete an In-Kind Form.
Making Cookies is also a way to help. We will need 60 dozen and it is imperative they do not contain nuts and are of a normal size maybe 1.5 inches approximately. These can also be brought to the December luncheon or dropped off at Dianne McMichael’s or Steph Pumps home no later than December 16th.
Finally, always remember to complete an In-Kind form and include it with any donation. These are extremely important for a few reasons.
- It’s part of what counts against our year end total for what we raised.
- HQ uses our participation in every grant they write. It counts as demonstrating community support.
- For auction items it’s the only way HQ can develop the bid sheets.
