(Nov. 24, 2016) Giving Tuesday is an international effort to promote charitable giving on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. As part of this effort, Worcester GOLD will be in front of the Atlantic Hotel in Berlin on Nov. 29 collecting toys and donations for the Helping Hands for the Holidays program, which provides gifts for local children in need.
There are several ways members of the community can participate. GOLD volunteers will be stationed in front of the Atlantic Hotel, from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. collecting monetary donations and donations of new, unwrapped toys.
Members of the community are encouraged to stop by and get some refreshments and help GOLD stuff a miniature antique truck full of toys. Santa may even make an appearance. Raffle tickets will also be sold for the chance to win an American Girl doll gift package.
For those who can’t make it to Berlin on Nov. 29, monetary donations can be made through the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore’s ShoreGivesMore.org site.
