You can purchase gift cards to a store such as Target, Marshall’s, Kohl’s, Ross, Giant or Sears and take them to the Town Office. Gift cards in $10 or $25 denominations would be appreciated. Please put the cards in an envelope with your name and your e-mail address. The deadline for gift card and gift collection is Monday, Dec. 15.
If you prefer, you can “adopt” a family and purchase specific items. Contact Cathy Wolf at wolfcs@starpower.net to be matched with a family.
