🎁 Holiday Giving For Community Families, Morris County
For many the holidays are a time for joy, reflection, and family fun. The holiday season reminds us of the struggle low wage-earning families have, simply trying to make ends meet. A single parent earning $10.00 an hour has little left after paying rent, groceries, child care tuition, and basic necessities. YOU can help create a holiday memory for a struggling Morris County family. Join Child & Family Resources in their Holiday Giving collaboration and join in collecting toys for some of the families they serve.
Click here to donate toys, toys for the family, or to click holiday shop, which requests a $10 donation for local families in need.
