Each year, First Presbyterian reaches out to Fostering Futures and the Washtenaw County Department of Health and Human Services to bring joy to families in Washtenaw County for the holidays. This progam each year in November and December enables everyone in our church community to make a real difference to an individual or family simply by providing a few gifts and/or food during the holiday season. This past November/December was a success!
Thank you for Making Christmas Bright for Our Community - December 2023
Once again, our First Pres family showed their love and generosity this Advent season by assisting local children and families through the Fostering Futures and Family to Family Christmas programs! During November and December, First Pres members and friends provided gifts for all 34 foster children referred to us by partner agency Fostering Futures, and also adopted or provided gift cards for all 42 families referred to us by the Washtenaw County Department of Health and Human Services. In addition, your financial contributions enabled us to provide $4,000 in Meijer gift cards to assist families at Michigan Medicine Mott Children’s Hospital during the holidays, and to the Department of Health and Human Services to help support additional families in need during Christmas and beyond. Thank you for making a difference by sharing your blessings with those in our community.
