| Holiday Giving |
| Minimum Commitment: Day of Event |
| Position Summary: Holiday Giving is a special opportunity for businesses, individuals and volunteers in our community to join together to benefit the people served by Kerr. The process starts with a Giving Tree and a wish list for the 1,700 children, families and adults served by Kerr. Each wish is recorded on a tag and placed on a Kerr Giving Tree. Donors can fulfill individual wishes, or work with a group to collect all the gifts. Volunteers deliver the new, unwrapped gifts to Kerr and our staff wraps each one, making sure everyone has something for the holidays, whether they are with family or celebrating with the Kerr staff. For some, this is the first time they will receive a present during the holidays, but for everyone, this one simple gift truly represents the magic of the season. |
