RGV Woodcarvers The RGV Woodcarvers welcomes any new and experienced See REUNIONS pg. 14 The joy of giving during the holiday season The joy of giving can be found during any time you choose to give. But, during the holiday season, make that joy even brighter. It is a time when we get to really see the fruits of our labor. Whether we are giving presents to the less fortunate, donating books to a school, helping an organization with meals, or volunteering at the food bank. We have already mentioned a few places to give to during this holiday season. The shoebox drop offs are wrapping up this year, but there are still ways to give online. You can visit the Operation Christmas Child at www.samaritanspurse.org and find out how you can still pack a shoebox online to give to a child this holiday season. If you have sent a box, there are ways to follow where your box went as well. And there are directions and tips on how to host your own party so you can start prepping for next year. In this issue, you will find the Salvation Army Angel Tree information. There is also Toys for Tots. You can find your local chapter at See GIVING pg. 16 Toys for Tots. Courtesy photo
