Support the Holiday Book and Toy Drive with Child Care Resource Center
After more than a year spent apart due to the pandemic, Child Care Resource Center is bringing the community together for the holidays. This year, you can directly support a family through their ‘adopt a family’ project. “When you adopt a family through our holiday book and toy drive, you’re saying “I care about you” and that means a lot to families who have really struggled this past year,” says CCRC President & CEO Dr. Michael Olenick. “Your donations will help us put a smile on a child’s face this season. That’s priceless.” This year, families will also receive a game that they can play together. Please visit: https://secure.qgiv.com/for/hbatd/
