COLE YMCA BLUEFINS: Bluefins News
christmas bureau families update!!!
We had about 7 or 8 bluefins families show up Friday to help finish wrapping the presents for our family. They enjoyed some pop and cookies while doing this. My girls & I delivered it the presents this morning and the mother was EXTREMELY appreciative. She was very close to tears and just couldn’t say thank you enough. I just wanted to give you a run down of what we accomplished together:
10 packs of diapers
2 GIGANTIC boxes of food
14-15 presents for each of the 4 children (60+ presents)
Large basket for the parents
In addition to all of that we had an additional $250 in giftcards/cash/food cards. I had adopted a second family in case we had a lot of overflow and I will be putting this additional money towards that family so we actually ended up providing for 1 1/2½ families. Everyone should be proud of how they’ve helped someone else in this season of need. T
hanks for all your donations & have a Merry Christmas!!!
