Christmas blessings from Angola's Hendry Park school kids!
In lieu of buying Christmas gifts for one another, the fifth grade students at Hendry Park and their families donated over $500 in order to buy Christmas presents for the three young children currently housed at TLC domestic violence shelter. The students came up with lists of items for their teachers to buy, had to stay within a given budget, and helped to wrap the presents that were secretly delivered before Christmas. It was a great lesson of giving for all!
Food donations received for holiday from local businesses
Angola’s domestic violence shelter has much to be thankful in 2021 including a full pantry and freezer of chicken delivered at Christmas by the generous folks at Cameron Hospital and Millers Amish Country Poultry. These gifts of food will feed residents and kids at Christmas and well into the New Year 2022.
