Below, you'll find some important information for Breakthrough's Christmas Store this year. It's being held Saturday, December 17th, at Breakthrough Urban Ministry Center (402 N St Louis Ave).
Breakthrough still needs donations and volunteers to make this event a success. More details (including shopping lists for Target and Walmart) are forwarded below. Please take some time to consider how you can help make this the best Christmas Store yet! :)
If you're volunteering, please sign up with Amy Duesing (volunteer@breakthrough.org). Volunteers are needed to help wrap gifts, assist shoppers, provide hospitality and bake holiday treats. If you're able to provide some new gifts for the store, you can have them shipped directly to Breakthrough, drop them off at Breakthrough, or drop them off at our place and we'll make sure they get to Breakthrough on time.
Let me know if you have any questions or fun ideas to make this even better.
Thanks, everyone and Merry Christmas! :)
Love and Hugs -
Amanda (& Don)

Dear Breakthrough Friends,
Breakthrough's
Annual Christmas Store is just 2 weeks away! The Christmas Store
empowers community residents and our homeless guests with a dignified
way of selecting and purchasing gifts for their loved ones. Shoppers are
able to purchase new toys and gifts at a discounted rate with earned
"Breakthrough Bucks" or with actual money.
There
are several ways you can get involved! We need volunteers to bake
holiday treats, host a toy drive, volunteer at the store, or plan an
afternoon shopping trip. Christmas Store volunteers are encouraged
to support the store with new toys or gifts. For ideas, please check out
the Breakthrough Wish Lists at Target and Walmart. Items ordered online ship directly to Breakthrough.
We appreciate your support of Breakthrough Urban Ministries. Merry Christmas!
Please contact Volunteer Coordinator Amy Duesing at volunteer@breakthrough.org for further details.
