2019 Holiday Gift Drive and Volunteer Event!
We are partnering with Boys & Girls Club of the Twin Cities in the Kids Can Give program.
What:
The Kids Can Give Program at the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Twin Cities provides Club kids with the opportunity to shop for gifts for family members and get each gift wrapped on site. Volunteers sign-up to help kids shop, wrap gifts or assist in running a holiday craft or cookie station.
Individuals, corporations, and organizations collect gifts for all ages, donating to the local Twin Cities Clubs. The City of Lakes Rotary has ‘adopted’ the Jerry Gamble Club this holiday season.
How much should I spend?: Most people spend approximately $50.00, with a maximum of $75. Choose gifts in the $15-20 range for all ages from birth to 100+years.
* Wrapping paper/gift bag donations are also appreciated.
