Letters to the Editor Marshfield Mariner January 3, 2001 Community Christmas
Meets goals To
the Editor: With your help and the help of many other deeply caring people like
yourselves, 352 families in Marshfield were able to have a happier Christmas.
Your spirit of sharing and compassion allowed 726 children a visit from Santa
that they might not have received otherwise. This
year's Community Christmas was a great success, which meant that more families
received food, clothing and gifts during the holiday season. This
was particularly important as the number of Marshfield residents suffering financial
difficulty is growing at an alarming rate. Your generous gifts allowed us to ease
these burdens and help these families enjoy their holiday season. On
behalf of all the children and families in Marshfield who benefited from your
generosity we thank you all. Every donation we received is a statement of compassion
and a reflection of the wonderful community spirit that lives in the businesses
and residents of Marshfield. Once
again, our deepest thanks for your participation in the Marshfield Community Christmas
program. We send you warmest wishes for a joyous New Year. George
Earle Marshfield Community Christmas Committee
