An estimated 1,000 presents were donated this year! The organizations that will be blessed through this effort are the local chapter of the
National Alliance on Mental Illness, the children of
St. John's parish in Paterson, the
Battered Women's Shelter in Morris Plains, as well as a number of local families facing finacial difficultires. What a great sign of the love and care our community shares with so many in need. Thank you for your kindness and generosity!
Special thanks to Deb Brazzel and her team of angels who led this ministry for the past 17 years!! This year leadership was transitioned to Laurie Szewczyk and Julie Amitrano. Laurie and Julie stepped up to the challenge with great passion and dedication and wasted no time recruiting hubbies and kids to help with the tasks at hand!
