Coatesville CYWA Project Santa 2010

Project Santa wrapping event will take place from noon - 4pm on December 18, at the Wyndham Garden!

Welcome friends and family! I added this page to my team website to make getting information out in a more efficient manner.

For the past few years, my family has been involved with the Coatesville CYWA, and has provided Christmas gifts for many of the children in their programs. The CYWA has several different programs, including a women’s shelter, a rehab program for women, an at-risk teens program, community outreach as well as a daycare program.

It is our mission to make sure that every child that will be at the shelter on Christmas morning will wake up to a pile of fun gifts with their name on them. We have been asked each year to help out with the older children and teens. Many of the toy-giving programs out there have an age limit of 10 or 11. This means that for some families, their younger children may get toys, while the older children do not get anything.

It’s that time of year! We are gearing up once again to play Santa, for all of the children at the Coatesville CYWA.

We are awaiting the lists of children and their “wish lists”. Last year with everyone’s help we covered 170 children! If you would like to help out, please contact Lisa at lisadospassos@gmail.com

Donations are the easiest way to contribute, so that we can shop specifically for each child. If you would like to take a child or two, and shop for them we will be happy to arrange thatJ

Everyone is invited to join us for the grand wrapping event, which will be on Sunday December 18^th from 12-4pm at the Wyndham Garden, on Rt 100 in Exton PA. They have a beautiful room set aside for us. It will be a fun way to get into the Christmas spirit, I promise!

This year at our November “Viva Las Flyball” tournament we will be collecting monetary donations. The tournament is at the Y2K9s Dog Sports Club in Wyndmoor, PA. www.y2k9s.net Stop by our raffle table and spread a little Christmas cheerJ

Call it what you like, good Karma, paying it forward…it is just one way to express gratitude for all that we do have.
Merry Christmas!
