Give a Gift to light up a family's holiday
The gift giving holidays can be especially difficult for families in need. JFS has a holiday gift program that lets parents who are struggling financially recommend specific gifts they know are needed and wanted. It may be a new pair of pj's, books, or boots to play in the snow.
If you want to purchase one of these gifts to donate, contact Jayme Hughes 513.766.3303,
All gifts are distributed by JFS staff to maintain confidentiality. | |
