Harvest Center Christmas Project
This Christmas, my kind-hearted client Anne Neilson coordinated a colossal effort to provide a big Christmas for a lot of less fortunate families served by The Harvest Center.
She and a dedicated group of friends and volunteers decorated three Harvest Center homes that serve as temporary housing for seven homeless families, gathered piles of stocking stuffers, went shopping to fulfill the wish lists of children whose single mothers are struggling to provide basic needs this season, then wrapped and delivered a decadent Christmas to over 75 needy Charlotteans.
I was proud to lend a hand with her solicitations for contributions, using email marketing, facebook, and blog postings to help coordinate the effort.
