A Season of Giving/Christmas Decatur is now in the 16th year of this community volunteer initiative of neighbors helping neighbors. This program is a grassroots volunteer effort to have caring neighbors and community members help low-income children and senior citizens enjoy the holidays. Last year, contributors made the holidays brighter for over 600 children and senior citizens.
Wish lists are still available. We can send you a wish list, so you can buy gifts for a specific child or senior. Spend approximately $100. You will receive a list of items with specific sizes and wishes. If a child needs a warm winter coat, please make that your first purchase. We want every child to receive a book. If you purchase your book at Little Shop of Stories, they will donate 20% of your purchase to A Season of Giving/Christmas Decatur. Please bring your wish list with you.
If you aren’t able to shop, you can make a donation and one of our volunteers will do the shopping. Make the check in any amount payable to A Season of Giving/Christmas Decatur and mail it to P.O. Box 220, Decatur, GA 30031.
Consider working with your neighbors, co-workers, club, or other organization to purchase gifts. Gifts are due on December 4 – only weeks away! For more information or to have wish list(s) sent to you, please email aseasonofgiving@decaturga.com or call (404) 378-8068.
Due to the forecasts for inclement weather today and tomorrow, the test of the outdoor tornado warning siren system will not be heard this month. The next regularly scheduled testing of the system will take place on Wednesday, December 1st at 5 p.m.
