Secret Santa is Thankful for Support across the Community

While many offices were closed for the Thanksgiving holiday, the hearts of those offices did not shut down. The thriving feel of "community" across the area has been indescribable to this point. We are amazed by the kindness people have shown as they adopt children and donate generously. Particular "Thanks" go out today to:

Somerville & Co. and the firm's employees--including, but not limited to, Jessica Boston, Melvin Chandler, Leon Brotsky, Mary Glenn Rice, John Hill II, Deborah Lewis, Tracy Teams, and Betty Woodrum.

Our gratefulness also is expressed to The Printing Express for their generosity in supporting the 2009 Lawrence County Secret Santa project.

With employees who hold the Secret Santa project near and dear to their hearts, the Lawrence County Department of Jobs and Family Services--previous organizers of the Secret Santa--has pledged for the office and its employees to "adopt" twenty children this Christmas!

Similarly, Palmetto GBA of Wheelersburg has committed to support and shop for twenty children. The organization is located in Scioto county but supports programs like Secret Santa in both Lawrence and Scioto counties each year. Thank you, Palmetto GBA!!

Additionally, five children have been adopted by the Ironton High School Math Club. Working together with the IHS Spanish Club who adopted twenty children, these two active organizations are supporting 25 of our 300 needy children this Christmas!! WAY TO GO, IHS!!! AND A GREAT BIG "THANK YOU!!!"

And the sponsorships of children continue from the the eastern part of the county as well! The Rome Church of Christ has taken an active role in supporting our Secret Santa project. The Rome Church of Christ Youth Group has agreed to shop for a family, as has the church's Ladies Group. Beyond the sponsorship of two families, the church is hosting an "Angel Tree" from which its attendees may select children to "adopt" and shop for. Thank you, Rome Church of Christ.
