Annual Christmas Baskets
|
Every year Centro and local partners rally together to create holiday baskets for families in our community that experience hardships throughout the winter months. Our baskets include a combination of staple food items and toys for children in need. We open up our application process for families in early November, and receive information necessary to craft unique baskets based on a family's request.
Fox12 Oregon & Les Schwab's toy drive make it possible for us to package over 400 Christmas presents for local youth in need. |
