On this morning’s Coffeebreak:
Rick’s guests were DeeGee Fischer and Judy Feeback of the Harrison County Board of Education. Discussion focused on the Christmas Angels Project.
It had been announced in late October/early November that the project would not take place, due to mitigating circumstances; however, due to great public outcry, primarily from those persons/organizations/companies that give donations, the project was picked back up, and announced in The Cynthiana Democrat and on the Community Education Center’s blog.
The Christmas Angels Project aims to aid families with low income (those who are on the “free lunch” program in the school system) with gifts during the holiday season.
According to Judy Feeback, there are currently 687 students on the roster whose parents had applied for the donation program before the deadline, and a good number of students on a waiting list. There is also a large number of angels available for the public to purchase gifts and clothing for. Angels may be picked up at the CEC building, the schools, and at a few area businesses. Monetary donations may also be made at these locations.
For more information, please contact:
The Community Education Center at 859.234.7160
Please make your gift or money donation soon–the deadline for donations is December 14.
