holiday wish list

As previously mentioned, from now until our agency closes for Christmas I am collecting toys for the kids at our family shelter, the Eleanor House, as well as families that come to our agency for assistance. 

I am also collecting items for our residents at the Rickman House and our Permanent Supportive Housing Program. These residents receive long term support and assistance through our agency, and have some kind of disability or mental health issue.
