Volunteers of America

If holiday commercialism is bringing out your Scrooge, get your seasonal mojo back by helping feed local families. The Toledo branch of Volunteers of America needs help packing and distributing 500 Christmas baskets. If you want to pack, you can join Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, and families helping out the community; donuts, coffee, cocoa, and plenty of good cheer make the morning a fun one. You can also help distribute the baskets, though you do need to be at least 13 years old and able to lift 50 lbs. Basket packing is Saturday, December 8 from 8:30-11am; basket distribution is Saturday, December 17, 8am-4pm.

For both activities, meet at 3101 Lagrange St. (corner of Lagrange and Central, across from the community center at the former library). Call 419-248-3733 to volunteer. www.voanwo.org. —NB
