Wrap Holiday presents for DV Victims

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Safe Places of CHRISTIAN RELIEF SERVICES CHARITIES INC

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 5 people are interested

All of the moms and kids in our program are getting holiday gifts from generous sponsors. While we let mom go through her kids gifts, wrap them and put them under the tree on their own, we want mom's holiday to be special too! We will be wrapping mom's presents so she can unwrap her gifts that were specially chosen with her in mind. Wrapping paper will be provided, but if you have extra wrapping paper, gift bags, tissue paper, scissors or tape to provide you are welcome to. Also, while all the mom's have been sponsored we find that mom's typically receive fewer gifts than the kids. If you want to contribute new unwrapped gifts that a mom may enjoy feel free and we can use them to supplement one of the mom's presents (candles, scarves, gloves, body wash etc). If you do not hear from someone within two business days please email Lauren at LaurenB@christianrelief.org.
