    Nominations will be open until Friday, Nov 5th.

    Donations will be accepted until Wednesday, December 15th.


    If you know of a family who will be in need this year, please contact me via PM, or email DaisiLou@aol.com

    Please provide me with a phone number so that I can call you to discuss the families individual need.

    Also, if you would like to go ahead and discuss a cash donation (before the holidays hit your wallet hard), please let me know. You can paypal me, mail me a check, or I can arrange a meeting to collect cash/donations from you.

    Thank you all for your continued support with this project.

    FYI, for everyone's convenience - if you have a gift to drop off, we will have a collection box in my office down at the Lowe's Foods Complex at 42/50. i am in Suite 210 next to Ace Hardware. We figured the easier it is to participate the more folks might feel so inclined:grouphug:
