Fun Fast Facts on our GFTH Christmas Shop
Year Two, 2017
Over 1200 gifts collected from gift registries and toy drives,
or purchased with cash donations.
A book drive by Viera Books-A-Million allowed us to give away one book per child.
Parents from 105 families purchased gifts for their children this Christmas.
Two hundred thirty-five (235) children received three gifts each.
Thirty-seven percent (37%) of the children were 12-18 years old.
53% of the children were from Club Esteem, with 21% from the DOCK, almost 10% from
Love INC, and 15% from our newest partner, Family Promise of Brevard.
These numbers reflects the varying sizes of our programs.
The Shop was open a total of six (6) days, including two Saturdays.
Proceeds from GFTH 2016 provided for a seasonal part time manager and assistant manager for GFTH 2017. We hope to employ a few teens for weekend work for GFTH 2018.
We are so thankful for all the donors, Giving Tree sponsors,
and volunteers who made GFTH Christmas Shop 2017 a success!
