The World Santa and Central Vermont Rotary have a plan to give generously to children this Christmas. They know that sometimes it is a struggle for low income families to purchase new winter apparel for their kids. They wanted to add to the joy of The Salvation Army and Toys for Tots Holiday Assistance program, so they got together to purchase over 160 brand new winter coats for boys and girls. Plus, they found a kind-hearted soul who spent all year knitting hundreds of pairs of winter mittens and hats.
Imagine the joy of the children of Central Vermont opening their Christmas morning toys and getting a stylish new coat to keep them warm as they play in the winter snow! Thank you so much, World Santa and Central Vermont Rotary, for thinking of others this year. Santa Claus is proud of you, and many parents are very grateful.
