Christmas Club
December 13 & 14th Save the date!
In December, the Wellston Center closes the doors of its Thrift
Store and transforms the space into our Christmas Club.
For two joyful days, the Club offers a holiday-store-experience of
brand-new, unopened gifts of toys, clothing, and household items,
able to be purchased by Food Pantry Member Families at an
affordable cost. This allows parents to choose the perfect gifts for
their children, share in the pride of giving, and celebrate Christmas
with dignity.
