Children from needy families may be able to receive Christmas gifts through our “Share the Joy” program which is available to low-income families with children up to 17 years old and senior citizens within Black Diamond, Ravensdale, Lake Sawyer, Green River Gorge, and Cumberland.

Applications may be picked up at the Black Diamond Community Center at 31605 Third Ave. Black Diamond.

Parents can pick up gifts on 5-7 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 19.

Applications are due at 4 p.m. Monday, Dec. 12 but sign up now so the elves can get an early start on shopping for your young ones.

If you would like to donate to the program, please call Cheryl Hanson or Leslie Johnson at 360-886-1011.
