FITCHBURG, Wis. More than 300 kids will get presents this holiday season thanks to dozens of donors, and the hard work of one Wisconsin woman.
Every year, WPS Health Solutions holds a toy drive for Henderson Elementary School on Madison’s north side. In 2019, they tagged trees throughout the building that people could choose, telling them what to donate and for whom.
This year though, nobody is in the WPS building. Nobody is in Henderson Elementary either. WPS planned to give out gift cards to the needy families instead.
“And I said ‘absolutely not’,” recounted WPS Director of Events and Strategic Partnerships Megan Willauer. “This means the world. Christmas is my favorite time of year.”
