Welcome

Many, many thanks…

…from the Leprechaun Board to all the donors who responded to our 29th Annual Adopt-a-Family program. The response was wonderful; we had 21 long time donors who come back every year, 5 new donors and 4 who came back to re-join after not participating recently.

One new donor family had family shoppers from out of the area, from Georgetown, Delaware and Miami, Florida and also the local host. Shopping is the highlight of their Thanksgiving celebration, where they buy for those in need, instead of themselves.

I noticed that my garage and the truck were more packed than last year. As I write this, I added up the numbers of people served, Our families consisted of 91 children, 16 single moms, 7 two parent, 7 grandparent families and one sibling family. One family is caring for 7 Foster Children.

These amazing care takers deserve a big vote of confidence for standing by their children, or grandchildren, or someone else's children and giving of themselves. When there are sick children in the family, (in some cases more than one), everyone is involved in dealing with the lack of funds, as well as some of the attention needed by all.

There are many heart wrenching situations and we feel truly blessed by all who step forward to help those who would not have Christmas, as well as the many items that help sustain a family who is so very much in need beyond the holiday.

I wish for you a New Year that will be happy and bright! and wish for you, God's richest blessings from all the Leprechauns and the families that we serve.

Local Girl Scouts Adopt-a-Family…

The girls from troop 51150 in Avon have completed their shopping and wrapping of gifts for their adopted family. There are gifts for each family member and a $50 Walmart gift card for food. They also made a special family blanket for their adopted family. This is the fifth year that the troop has adopted a family.
