Thanks to all who participated in the Stuff the Bus event!
The event was held on January 18. We collected almost 770 pounds of food! Many thanks to Giant Food, Fairfax County, and the Vienna Oakton Young Men’s Service League, whose volunteers helped to collect donations, “stuff the bus” and unpack the bus at the Food Closet.
Thanks to our Clothes Closet donors!
Thanks, too, for deliveries by Bill Grossman, who stopped by to deliver gifts from the Saint Mark Catholic Church Giving tree, and from Wendy Michael, who dropped off coats from the Antioch Christian Church drive.
Thanks to all, and Happy New Year!
2024 CHO Christmas Store!
Last Saturday, 109 families enjoyed holiday cheer at the CHO Christmas Store held at Vienna Presbyterian. An additional 14 families and 32 seniors at Tysons’ Towers will be mailed gift cards. The Store is only possible thanks to the 50 volunteers who set up the Store on Friday and the 60 volunteers who worked the Store and cleaned up. And many thanks to the churches and organizations that held toy and gift card drives, and the individuals who dropped off toys, gift cards, and donations over the past month. We couldn’t have done it without you!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!
