175 days and 2 hours Till Christmas |
 The Santa Clothes Club
Christmas is a joyful time for a child... and giving to children is what hundreds of Santa Clothes Club members do during the Christmas season.
Here are some simple facts about this unusual club...
- The Santa Clothes Club was organized in 1946 to provide new clothing for needy grade school children. After 61 years, this need still exists.
The telethon will be on Sunday, December 7th, 2008 - 12-6PM - Washington
Square Mall
- This year, One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) will completely clothe one boy or girl with an outfit from Wal-Mart Super Center, which includes 1 pair of pants, 1 shirt/top, 6 pair underwear, 6 pair socks, shoes, gloves and a Winter hooded coat.. Our goal this year is to raise $250,000 so we can clothe approximately 2,500 needy Tri-State school children.
- The names of the children are obtained through the school systems in Vanderburgh, Warrick, Gibson, Posey in Indiana and Henderson County in Kentucky. The children receive their clothing from mid-October through mid-November so they will have the coats before cold weather.
- Every year, a telethon is aired on NEWS 25 in order to raise funds for the campaign. This year the telethon will be on Sunday, December 7th , beginning at 12:00PM until 6:00PM at Washington Square Mall..
Remember, One Hundred Dollars will outfit One Child...but whatever you give in the envelope will make you a member again in a program that says..."MERRY CHRISTMAS"... in a very special way. Thanks so much!
Sincerely,
Doug Padgett, President
Santa Clothes Club, Inc.
