Donate through Friday, Dec. 8th
This holiday season LexFUN! will be working with the Middlesex Human Service Agency (MHSA) to spread seasonal happiness to local families who are currently experiencing homelessness. We hope to provide $50 Target gift cards to 80 children, ranging in age from 1 to 17, who are currently living in family shelters in our neighboring town of Waltham. We hope you will consider making a donation towards the cost of these gift cards. LexFUN! will match $1,000 of donations.
MHSA currently provides safe and secure emergency shelter for more than 200 families throughout the Greater Boston area each night. Their staff is trained to address a wide range of barriers commonly faced by families experiencing homelessness. Domestic violence, financial insecurity, trauma, substance abuse and mental health issues as well as stabilization programs and permanent housing options are all addressed by this amazing organization. Beyond shelter, MHSA also offers food programs, providing daily opportunities to receive a free meal or bag of groceries. The goal of MSHA is to assist each family in finding and maintaining secure permanent housing.
Our holiday gift card donations will directly benefit these local children who are experiencing a difficult time in their lives. We aim to spread some joy and allow them to choose to spend the gift cards as they wish.
We will be collecting donations through Friday December 8th.
Thank you!
