Despite Covid – Despite Social Distancing – Despite having to change our entire way of thinking, the people who make up the Lacey Food Bank Kids Volunteers will continue to KEEP THE PROMISE OF CHRISTMAS to the youngest of our client children. We are having to forego the annual Christmas Gift Shop we set up for our caregivers to come in and select the just-right gift for their child. Instead, now that we are quickly becoming pros at drive-by distributions, we will be calling caregivers with proper and current Lacey Food Bank identification and arranging for them to ‘drive-by’ and pick up a Christmas gift bag, for each child, filled with warm necessities, a family size puzzle or activity, snacks, surprises, and a Gift Card. We are confident we can do this because of the goodness and generosity of our donors. So many gifts come in anonymously that it is hard to thank each one of you personally, especially this year when the dropoffs are largely non-contact. Just know that we, and the children we serve, are so very grateful and blessed to have your support and encouragement. Last day for donations is December 7. THANK YOU LACEY TOWNSHIP for your continuing support of the children.
