We hope our readers had a fabulous Thanksgiving weekend! It was definitely a nice mini-vacation for us here at HandsOn (November has been a busy month!) Volunteers helped kick off the Season of Giving on November 20th for Serving Fresno Day, giving back to local non-profit organizations by helping to beautify and organize offices, put together meal boxes, clean parks, and much more. Mother nature was not on our side, yet volunteers still met us in the cold morning rain, when we know they would much rather have stayed warm and dry in their beds. We cannot say enough what AMAZING and dedicated volunteers we have!
If you'd like to help, we are still taking sign-ups to help at our next event Hope for the Holidays on December 19th. One of our favorite and most memorable events, Hope for the Holidays gives homeless families the opportunity to celebrate the holiday season together with good food and cheer, and each child receives their very own gift from Santa Claus himself! You can visit www.handsoncentralcal.org or call us at 559-237-3101 to help. We also have a toy donation box located at the Santa Studio in River Park and the Serve Fresno Christmas tree up, where you can Give the Gift of Time by making a commitment to volunteer in your community. While you are there, make sure to visit our Art By Hand store!!!! We are so very excited to showcase the fantastic one-of-a-kind art pieces designed by local artists at our new holiday location! You can find art decor, warm accessories, and unique jewelry gifts for yourself or a loved one. Your purchases help to enable us in continuing to serve our community.
Have a Happy Holiday season and please remember to pop in and say "Hi" in-between your Christmas shopping at River Park.
