This year’s 2000 Turkeys campaign exceeded it’s goal, raising more than $117,000 in order to put a Thanksgiving meal on the tables of people in need. The many folks who contributed to that cause might rightly have felt a sense of warmth and satisfaction from their generosity.

Those who missed that opportunity, as well as those who did not get their fill of the spirit of giving, have another chance to feel good: This time, it’s about providing Christmas gifts to those who might otherwise not receive them.

LeMoyne Community Center is now collecting new and gently used items, unwrapped, that will become gifts for anyone needing one as a result of poverty, loneliness or any other reason.

The LeMoyne Center is at 200 Forrest Ave. in Washington. Its telephone number is 724-228-0260.
