The holiday season is almost here and once again MVS would like to bring some holiday cheer to the children living at St. Ann’s Home and School in Methuen. This year St. Ann’s has expanded to 160 in-house children, even during the pandemic, as children continue to have mental health challenges, often made worse by the isolation of being home during this time.
St. Ann’s has provided 11 lists – 1 per unit. Each unit is for a specific age group. Within each unit document there are 3 components:
Children’s Gifts Under $20
Children’s 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Choices
Children’s Clothing Sizes
If you would like to participate by donation a gift, THANK YOU!
Just pick and purchase a gift from any of the lists.
Do NOT wrap the gift.
There is no need to let us know what you purchased.
Typically the gifts are brought to the December General Meeting, but since that will not work this year, we have 2 collection sites where you can drop off your gift – the Pelletier’s front porch and the Jannetti’s front porch. Chad and I both work from home so feel free to drop off your gift anytime.
Pelletiers: 90 Middlesex Street, North Andover, MA. 01845
Jannettis: 25 Smithshire Estates, Andover, MA. 01810
Please drop off your gift by Sunday, November 29th.
Thank you!
Diane Jannetti
