Baskets Filled to the Brim With Love
To usher in the holiday season with care and compassion, the Junior League of Montgomery partnered with HandsOn River Region for its annual Baskets of Love campaign. Baskets of Love is a unique partnership with HandsOn River Region’s Christmas Clearinghouse project to provide essential items to under-resourced households during the holiday season when budgets are stretched for many service agencies and families. Baskets of Love provides necessities, such as hygiene and personal care products, diapers, and formula, during the holiday season, freeing already limited money to help families purchase more gifts to give kids a memorable holiday!
“The Junior League of Montgomery’s members have generously donated items to support the assembling of each “basket of love” for hundreds of families in our community over the years. This year we made a conscious effort to coordinate with Tasha Cooper at HandsOn River Region to collect substantive items to fill each basket. We were able to donate more than 50 baskets to HandsOn River Region,” said Amerika Blair, Community Council Vice President.
