2016 Children’s Christmas Party

November 6, 2016 by Staff

Again this year we would like to foster the spirit of sharing with those in need. There will be boxes at the entrance to the party area for donations for Christmas Gift Bag items for hospitalized Veterans. Items needed include: white T-shirts, travel size deodorant, white socks, body spray, word search books, toothbrushes, toothpaste, denture tablets, 3 ‘n 1 body wash, combs, wipes, etc.

Also inside the entrance to the party we will have Christmas cards that can be signed by anyone in attendance.

The cards will be sent to patients at the VA Hospital.

Members: If you are planning on attending with your children, grandchildren, nieces or nephews this year please bring a moderately priced gift – wrapped and clearly labeled – for each child that you bring to the party.

The gifts will be placed in the room with the Christmas tree so that after Santa Claus arrives he can hand out the gifts & be photographed with the children.

The Detachment will provide pizza, salad & other refreshments for the party and a gift bag favor for each child. Each child will also be entered in a drawing for Door Prizes. Please RSVP by Tuesday December 6th so that we have enough favors for every child.

2016 Holiday Service Project

November 6, 2016 by Staff

2016 Holiday Service Project ~ Project Coordinator Janet Lindner

The Detachment is continuing to support the same Holiday Service Project that we have done since 2006. Last year the Detachment collected monetary contributions and toys & gifts for several deserving organizations. Janet used the donations to purchase additional toys & gifts. Two carloads of items went to North Hills Community Outreach. They were extremely thankful for our generosity. Items were also distributed to Genesis of Pittsburgh and Renewal, Inc., on Grant Avenue in Pittsburgh, which now services Lydia’s Place, an organization that we supported in previous years.

This year we are going to begin the collections in October & November so that the items can be given to the organizations early in December.

WHAT:

Toys, gift items, especially needed are items for boys & teenagers; any Steelers items (shirts in large sizes); gift cards; even small toys & items less than $5 are greatly appreciated. Do not wrap the items.
Holiday gift-wrap & gift bags, ribbon & tape are also needed.
If you don’t like to shop don’t worry – Janet does. Monetary donations will be used to purchase toys & gifts & gift cards.

WHEN:

Items and Donations will be collected at the Marine Corps Birthday Dinner and the October & November Detachment meetings or can be sent to Janet at the address below.

HOW:

Bring your items or donations to the October or November Detachment meetings or the Marine Corps Birthday Celebration and give them to Janet Lindner. She will see that they are distributed to the organizations listed above.

Contributions by check can be sent to Janet Lindner, 930 Perry Highway. Pittsburgh. PA 15229.

(All monies are accounted for and a report is prepared for the Detachment).
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide to this worthwhile project.
