The Rotary Club of Ankeny's corporate member, GoServ Global supports a large school, clinic and several orphanages in Haiti. This Christmas, they are collecting gift boxes specifically for the children living in the orphanages. They hope to collect 300-400 Christmas boxes this year. The kids look forward to this every year, and get very excited when they see the boxes.
Boxes will be available at Rotary meetings through September 15th for any one that would be willing to help fill a box or several boxes. Gifts should be kept gender neutral and please no winter hats or gloves. Gift suggestions include small toys, games, personal care items, and school supplies. Filled boxes can be returned to Maggie Carstensen by September 22nd or earlier, by bringing them back to a Rotary meeting. Contact Maggie at maggie@goservglobal.org with any questions.
This is a wonderful opportunity for our club to make kids feel valued and loved and helping to make Christmas extra special for them!
