You can donate to the Maine Children’s Home’s Christmas/Winter Essentials Program at Kringleville at Castonguay Square in Waterville. Stop by both Saturday and Sunday, 1pm to 4pm. The program supports over 1,400 children and teens.
Each child receives a personalized care package filled with:
– Brand new clothes
– Winter hats, mittens, gloves, boots, and jackets
– Hygiene items
– Toys, books, and games
Every care package is carefully tailored to the child’s needs, interests, and size.
The program serves families with incomes at or below 133% of the federal poverty level, ensuring Maine’s children and youth aged 17 and under feel supported during this special time of year.
Families are also connected with valuable resources to support them through the winter months.
