Families in Powell and Clark will once again have a little help thanks to Powell Christmas Baskets. The organization is accepting applications to receive a basket of goods through Friday, Dec. 13.
The hope is that the organization can help people in need by providing ingredients for a Christmas meal as well as toys through partnership with Toys for Tots, said Howard Sanders, one of the organizers.
“[For the families], it means that they will have toys for their kids, and for the older ones we give gift certificates so they can get something that they can use, and then give them a meal that they can sit down to,” Sanders said.
Applications can be picked up at Loaves and Fishes, schools, churches, the Department of Familiy Services and the Northwest Trading Post. New this year is a Spanish version of the application, which is printed on the back. The goal is to improve communication and not leave out families who need assistance, Howard said.
All applications must be turned in to the Powell Police Department by Dec. 13.
