When you’re out and about shopping for Christmas, please extend your
giving beyond your family. Please buy a gift for a needy child in
Gasport.
On Tuesday, the Mitten Tree will be going up.
This is the ninth year for this awesome program that is run by the Gasport Lions Club.
Here’s how it works…
The tree is located out front of the Gasport post office at the corner of Main Street and Route 31.
Take a mitten from it and give a gift that is appropriate to the age/gender of the child noted on the mitten.
Attach the mitten to the unwrapped gift and drop it off at Absolut Care or Drum Oil (they have drop boxes) or at the Elementary School (under the tree in the lobby). The Lions Club will distribute the gifts in time for the holidays.
It’s extremely important that the community supports the Mitten Tree. The economy is still a little messy, unemployment (and underemployment) is still high, and we need folks to help those who are struggling.
Please participate and make Christmas a little better for a child – maybe even your neighbor – who is in need. That’s what the holiday is all about.
