This is the way to start our Winter Break! From Erin Jacobson:
AMAZING THANK YOU to the staff and community that allow this day to happen!
We took 58 kids shopping on Friday!
35 kids who were invited but unable to attend today!
Items were purchased as gifts for others and themselves!
"I never knew this store was in Rib Mountain"
"I have never been here before, there is so much to look at"
"I have never gotten new pants before"
"I am so excited to be able to give my siblings holiday gifts"
The product the kids leave with is fun! But the experience is why we provide it!
Kids were extremely thankful and appreciative!
