Child Development Center holiday project
LIST OF SUGGESTED ITEMS TO DONATE IS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS STORY -
For the sixth year, Bluffton Child Development Center will participate in the Blaze of Lights parade and invites public participation.
"This holiday season, we will be collecting items to send care packages for the deployed men and women overseas," said Francine Donathan, Center director.
"We will be walking through the parade with shopping carts to collect donations. Items can also be dropped off at 325 County Line Road, Bluffton, Ohio 45817 by Tuesday, Dec. 3," she said.
"After all the help we have received with getting our playground, we feel it is only right to pay it forward and try to be the light in others’ days," Donathan added.
