DCE Adopt A Family

DCE has adopted a family for Christmas 2010!

A single mother, age 25 with 4 young children. Macaiah is 9, Jacqueline is 8, Zionna is 7 and Yadun is 4.

Here is the plan:
1. Starting November 23 you can go to room 31 and take 'wishes' from our wish tree.

2. Shop! Shop! Shop!

3. A wrapping station will be set up in room 31 December 13 - 16 for your convenience. Don't want to wrap? Student & Faculty Services will do it for you!

4. December 13 - 17(NOON) Drop off your gifts to room 131 (Stud/Fac Svcs)

The committee will deliver the gifts to the Flint Hills Breadbasket on December 17 at 3:00.

When you choose a 'wish' card from the tree, keep in mind that some of the wishes are more expensive than others. Feel free to take several cards or choose to find a friend to go in with you on a larger ticket item. Sizes will be indicated on your wish card.

Here are some of the wishes for our family:

Macaiah is 9 and he wishes for a new bible, a new coat, gloves & hat, used xbox 360 or wii games, mp3 player. He likes collecting rocks and spy stuff. His favorite colors are blue, red and green.

Jacqueline is 8 and she wishes for a new bible, some fun make-up, arts & craft items, a karaoke machine, mp3 player. She is a girly girl who loves iCarly & Hannah Montana. She would like a pink rug for her room, a pink coat with gloves and a hat to match. Her favorite color is pink and loves glitter. (my kind of girl!)

Zionna is 7 and she wishes for a leap pad with math games, arts & craft items, mp3 player and a new bible. She likes the Backyardigans and Tinkerbell. Her favorite color is purple and she would like a new purple rug for her room, a purple coat and gloves. (Cara's kind of girl!)

Yadun is 4 and he wishes for anything that lights up and is noisy! He loves Cars, especially Lightening McQueen. Tonka trucks and matchbox cars are on his list, along with a new fleece blanket for his bed. His favorite color is blue and red, and he could use a nice warm coat for winter.

Mom's name is Katrina. She doesn't wish for anything for herself, but likes anything that smells nice for the house. She would be very grateful for anything for her kids and a gift for her would be relief from her grocery bill. I will have Dillons or Ray's gift cards as an option on the tree for Katrina.

Let's make this a wonderful Christmas for our breadbasket family!
