Help us to help families without a home to have a Happy Holidays

The Wellness Coaches at Nutrition Avenue will be helping to collect gifts to help the families in the 'Family Promise' program that will be without a home on Christmas. Here is your chance to help families and children have a Happy Holidays! 

About Family Promise 
 Family Promise is an organization whose mission is to help homeless and low-income families achieve sustainable independence.

What is the Christmas Wish List? 
Over the Christmas Holiday, several families and their children will be without a home and staying within a local church. Can you imagine as a child not having a home over Christmas? Many of us are blessed to be able to spend time with our families and with a roof over our heads we can call our own. These families are working to make positive changes in their lives, but they need help. Family Promise has requested that their guests provide a wish list of three items. The list below reflects those wish items as well as items of need for the guests in the mentor program that will be spending Christmas at the church.

How Can You Help? 
Gifts can be directly dropped off to the Nutrition Avenue office on Monday – Friday, from 8:30 am to 5 pm. For the address and directions, please visit the contact section of our website.

Additionally, you can get with a Nutrition Avenue coach to make pickup arrangements.

Please make sure that the gift is simply wrapped with tags that indicate for whom the gift is intended. If you need assistance with wrapping, we will be happy to help. Questions can be directed to Wendy Hunte at 972-630-8222, or through the contact information on the Nutrition Avenue website.

We will post the most updated version of the list on the Nutrition Avenue Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/nutritionavenue.

Thank you in advance for helping the Family Promise guests to enjoy a blessed and happy holiday season.
