For the second year in a row, the Martensville and District Kinette Club is helping families who are currently struggling financially to try and make their Christmas a bit brighter.
The club will be doing another Adopt-a-Family at Christmas time and this year they are going to try and adopt as many families as they can. Adopted families can be from Martensville, Warman, Osler, Hague, Rosthern, Waldheim or Dalmeny.
They are asking for nominations of families that would benefit from their help, which could include supplying a Christmas supper, providing presents for the children, etc.
The nomination form can be found on the Martensville and District Kinette’s Club Facebook page by clicking on the Adopt a Family 2021 link. The deadline to nominate is December 10, 2021.
“If you are able to donate, we are taking donations of money or gift cards. If you donate $50 or more, we will issue a donation receipt. If anyone is wanting to e-transfer, they can send it to martensvillekinettes@gmail.com and put in the comments ADOPT-A-FAMILY,” said Vice President Tracy Shaw.
Last year the local Kinette Club had a goal of helping two families; however thanks to the support of local individuals and businesses, they were able to help seven families by donating food, hygiene items, toys, gift cards and more. The seven families had a total of 18 children between them.
This year, the Kinettes hope to be able to provide support to even more local families.
