Care n'Share deadline drawing near |
| November 21, 2013 |

Linda Lederhos is getting concerned. The
deadline for applications for a Care n'Share
Christmas is just one week away, and so far,
requests
are coming in at a trickle instead of a rush. After more than 30 years at the helm of Boundary County's Care n'Share program, Linda has a good sense of what the need in the community will be for gifts to ensure that no child in Boundary County goes without on Christmas, and she senses that need is high this year. Maybe the unusually warm, wet weather of late is keeping people's minds off the holidays ... whatever the reason, don't put off until too late! Applications are due by November 28. Those in need can pick up applications at Panhandle Health, 7402 Caribou Street across from Boundary Community Hospital, or at the Bamboo Room, 35 Automation Lane, 1 1/2 miles north of Three Mile. You don't have to be a parent or guardian to make application. If you know of a family going through tough times, you can make application on their behalf. To find out more, call Linda at (208) 290-1483. |
