Help us bring extra smiles this holiday season by organizing a gift-card-drive for children in the community. All gift cards are in support of Holiday Hope Chests, a program coordinated by the Volunteer Center of the Lehigh Valley and are donated to our regional nonprofit partners who support youth in the community through their programs and services. This is a great project for large/small groups, clubs, classes, families, and individuals. To participate, go to www.volunteerlv.org/hhc-giftcards and fill out a 2025 Donor Pledge Form by December 5.
