Karing for Kids Angel Tress

Santa may not have arrived yet, but the Christmas season has officially arrived in Wells County!
On Monday, Karing For Kids set up Angel Trees in a wide range of businesses, churches and schools around Wells and Huntington counties.
KFK’s goal for this year is to provide 625 children from 211 families in Huntington and Wells counties with eight gifts each, and is relying on generous donors to help provide suitable items.
Last year, the organization supplied gifts for 467 children from 167 families.
Donations may be made between now and Wednesday, Dec. 9. Each family will also receive a Christmas Meal box and a bible, with Life Church in Bluffton is co-ordinating the donations for the meal boxes.
Wrapping of the gifts will begin at 6 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 18 at the Markle Church of Christ, and will continue on Saturday Dec. 19 until finished. Delivery will be Sunday, Dec. 20 beginning at 1 p.m.
Monetary donations may be sent to Karing for Kids, 1481W-100N., Bluffton, IN 46714.
Further information is available from Rhonda O’Reilly at 260-273-0716.
