Christmas Blessings program assists families with necessities

STAFF REPORT
HANNIBAL — In its first year, the Christmas Blessings program at Douglass Community Services provided assistance for needed items to 104 individuals in 39 families.
Assistance provided by local donors include household and clothing items, as well as transportation and utility assistance. Highlights included providing reliable transportation for a family, donating 11 beds and three household appliances and assisting a family with medical travel.
“The Christmas Blessings Program recognized that many families have needs beyond toys,” said Stacey Nicholas, director of Community Outreach Initiatives. “All children in the program received toys through Toys for Tots of Northeast Missouri. Christmas Blessings gave items that provided for family stabilization.”
