Donate to the CCAC Holiday Gift Drive

This year, the CCAC is hosting a week-long Holiday Festival for our children and families.  Every evening from December 14-18, families will come to the Center to enjoy a holiday extravaganza including arts and crafts, hot dogs and chips, and of course a visit with Santa!  Parents will go “shopping” in the CCAC North Pole and pick out holiday gifts for their children.  At the same time, children will be able to visit the Paulette Abraham Parent’s Store and pick out a lovely gift for their parent.  Paulette Abraham was the founder and driving force behind the CCAC Kids Holiday party.

We need new, unused items and toys for our families, including toys, gift cards, and basic need items such as scarves, hats, gloves, coats, socks, blankets and sleeping bags. 
The full wish list is below.

All new, unwrapped items must be dropped off at the CCAC, 1240 S. Damen Avenue by December 9, 2009.  For more information contact Cassandra Esposito at cesposito@chicagocac.org or 312.492.3721.
