Holiday Tradition
December 20, 2011 at 1:38 PM
For over 15 years the Eastfield Mall has generously donated space for our gift wrapping booths which traditionally have raised over $6,000 each year. All of the money raised goes directly to supporting our mission of building simple, decent and affordable homes in partnership with local families in need.
For the past few years that I have been working to organize the gift wrap, I have been blown away at the communities support of this annual fundraiser. Last year, volunteers contributed over 800 hours in wrapping gifts to help our organization. Families and friends have made this volunteer opportunity a yearly event and we truly appreciate the support!
As we enter the last few days of this years gift wrap, I thank everyone (past and present!) who have turned this event into a holiday tradition and an annual success.
