Thank you!
….. for your interest in holiday giving to help Children’s Home Society!
Attached is the CHS “Christmas Wish List”. These are collective wishes from our
classrooms, living units, foster care & adoption workers, family therapists, the nurses,
cooks, and support staff that all have a part in caring for our kids. These wishes are
shared by all the kids at CHS. There are lots of things to choose from!
We prefer that gifts are unwrapped for easier sorting and organization. Gifts can be
delivered December 17th, 18th, or 19th. Please call and let us know when you plan to
come, so we can be on hand to meet you, to help you unload, and to thank you!
____________________________________________________________________________
If you see an item (or items) from the list that you would like to provide, please call
Debra Moritz at (605) 965-3136 or email deb.moritz@chssd.org. We will take your
choice(s) off the list when only one is needed.
Thank You for remembering our kids!
Merry Christmas!
