So far this year, they have received fifty-nine compliments. For every ten compliments, they get to visit the treasure box! That is where YOUR donations have blessed us! Your donations have purchased rubber ducks, cars, erasers, squishy toys, and various small items for each child to choose a treasure to take home. They get so excited and cheer whenever they have earned the treasure box! Their eyes light up when they make the choice of what treasure they finally want! They are so eager to go home and show their family what they chose.
