Norwalk's Open Door Shelter "Adopt a Family" Program Needs Sponsors

Just contact the shelter. They have every child's wish list and you can buy one or more items for them this week, still in time to make a child living in poverty happier on Christmas.

The Norwalk Open Door Shelter "Adopt a Family" for Christmas program is going strong right now for over 100 families.
  
But they still have 79 children remaining to sponsor.
  
They have every child's wish list and you can buy one or more items for them this week, still in time to make a child living in poverty happier on Christmas.
  
Sponsoring is easy.  Just call Sharon Boyd at the Open Door Shelter (203) 866 1057 ext 33 or  email Sharon at sboyd@opendoorshelter.org.
  
She will give you the child's wish list.  Buy what you can.  Bring the items to the Open Door Shelter. 
  
That's it.  
  
May your holiday be merry, bright and complete knowing we are all helping the homeless and poor in our community. 

 
P.S. The Open Door Shelter is still catching up on their 2013 expenses.  Every donation really matters to keep this work going (especially in the cold weather). If you can, give now.
