Now through Tuesday, December 10, 2024, we will be holding a Basic Needs Building Block Event partnering with Butler County Educational Service Center. We will provide you or your organization with a wishlist of items for a family in need this holiday season. We ask that all gifts remain unwrapped. At this time, all families have been adopted! If you would like to volunteer to help with this effort in other ways, please contact us at holidayhelp@bcesc.org.
For those who have already adopted families:
