Holiday Gift Run
On Saturday, December 22nd, Santa and his Elves made some early deliveries. The Holiday Gift Run is an effort, coordinated by our Disaster Relief Volunteers, to bring holiday joy to children in our area that have recently experienced a devastating house fire.
Santa (David Jochen) and Elves Carol Jochen, Julie Daigle, Marissa Roberts, Arielle Axelbank, and Lori Freedman (assisted by Alyssa Concannon on candy cane detail) visited the families bearing gifts. One only needs to look at these children’s faces to experience a portion of the sheer glee witnessed throughout the day.
This year’s Holiday Gift Run was able to benefit 66 children in 30 families.

The Chapter is sincerely grateful for:

Every little good thing you do
can make a big difference
in someone’s life…
