PTA Council partners with Rotaries, the Y, and Shoreline Fire to provide Christmas for kids
Friday, December 6, 2013
The Shoreline PTA Council has partnered with all four of our Rotaries: Shoreline Breakfast, Shoreline Lunch, Rain City, and Lake Forest Park, as well as Hopelink, the Y and Shoreline Fire, to bring Christmas to kids whose families need some assistance.
One in four children in Shoreline Schools is in need, with some schools having a higher ratio. Families struggling to put food on the table do not have the resources for anything extra for the children.
The Holiday Baskets project collects food, toys, and teen gifts. The Shoreline Fire Department will be sponsoring a toy donation drive at the Fred Meyer in Shoreline on Saturday, December 7th,
A Rotary member commented that there are never enough gifts for boys.
There are many ways that you can help. If you want to shop, you can drop off your new, unwrapped toy at any Shoreline Fire Department, any school in the District, or the Sharing Tree in the Lake Forest Park Town Center.
If you don't want to shop, you can donate online to the PTA account, or mail a check to Shoreline PTA Council, P.O. Box 55784, Shoreline, WA 98155-5784.
