Driftwood Players offers holiday spirit to youth in shelters

Kathleen Huston of the Edmonds Driftwood Players sent a special holiday wish: “The Holiday Season means different things to different people. But to a kid it means magic.”

Their Take a Kid to the Theater program is expanding. This holiday season they have organized a group of 65 kids and chaperones from two shelter locations, and are bringing them to see ‘The Wizard of Oz’ at the Wade James Theater on December 15, 2013.

The YWCA locations where the children live try hard to cover the basic day to day living expenses. There is nothing left afterward to bring in the Holiday Spirit. That is where this program comes in.

"We want to give these kids something for Christmas that they will remember forever. And your memory stays with you wherever you go! 

"So please consider Sponsoring a kids or two or more. Every $20 donation will make a child very happy. These are tax deductible charitable donations too. Just go to the website and click on the DONATION tab."
