Christmas 2009

United Methodist Women - The First United Methodist Church of Leonard have been long time supporters of the Center.  Each year they donate so many toys, clothes and other items for our kids.  We appreciate their faithful generosity time after time.

It's become a Christmas tradition at these local places to put up a teddy bear tree for the Children's Center in order to collect toys, games, clothes and other items for children. Their generosity and support will bring lots of smiles and excitement to Christmas morning for many children.

  
Texoma Toys for Tots - We are very grateful to the Marines for giving us two toys for each child we provide Christmas presents for. This chapter of Toys for Tots has been faithfully contributing to our effort for the last several years.

GE Zenith Controls - Employees at this Bonham business put up a teddy bear tree again this year in order to give toys to children. We appreciate their faithful contributions, year after year.

 Delta Kappa Gamma - We appreciate the wonderful contributions of this teacher's sorority.  They provided toys, games, coats, clothes and other items for many of our children.  Delta member Mary Campbell (center) presented the gifts to Britney Martin (left) and Kim Skidmore (right).
