Holiday Heroes 2009

We make sure every child in our care receives holiday gifts. Many thanks to the generous companies, organizations and individuals in our community who make this possible.

The Holiday Heroes program works as follows:

• Each child fills out a Wish List
• Heroes receive the Wish Lists, purchase and wrap the gifts
• Heroes may also send a donation to sponsor a child (we will do all the shopping and wrapping)

We ask that Heroes only spend $100 per child. If you would like to spend more than that amount, you may sponsor additional children or a sibling group.

For Wish Lists, please contact Dyianweh Queh at Dyianweh.Queh@YouthVillages.org or 404-320-2940. See below contact for monetary gifts.

Volunteers Needed!

We rely on volunteers and volunteer groups to make the holidays bright. We need volunteers to wrap hundreds of gifts for the children:

Gift Wrapping: Week of December 14th-18th, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Your time will be greatly appreciated!

Winter Clothing and Coat Drive!

It's getting chilly! Please consider donating new or gently used winter coats, hats, mittens, scarves and other warm clothes for winter. We need items for boys and girls, ages 5 - 18.
