Our 10th Spirit Gift Wrapping event was made incredibly successful due to the numerous volunteers who graciously gave of their time this past year. Our efforts to shop and organize our gifts for the children during October and November were made far easier due to the 3,000 sq. ft. storage space donated by Jace Murray and Ellen Gallagher of Murray Commercial in St. Charles, and by the large space donated again this year by the St. Charles Park District for our wrapping event.
Over 250 needy children in our local communities benefitted from the efforts of our volunteers and the generosity of our individual and corporate donors, particularly the St. Charles Meijer store. All gifts were individually chosen and then beautifully wrapped by one of our volunteers. It is impossible to adequately thank each of our volunteers, but we hope they all know how vital they are to helping us with our mission – to serve the less fortunate children in our communities.
