Waypoint’s Wonderland

The holidays are a welcoming time for most, but for many in need it can be a challenging time of year. There are thousands of families in our community who are in need — living in a homeless shelter….seeking refuge from domestic violence….or who are nearly-homeless and living paycheck to paycheck. Some families may receive support from a friend or family member, others receive help from human service agencies such as Waypoint for shelter, basic needs, and even holiday presents.

• Can you imagine a child making a wish list, with his mother knowing she can’t make his wishes come true?
• Can you imagine a preteen not writing a letter because she knows her family cannot afford presents?
• Can you imagine a child wanting to give a gift to his mom, but she doesn’t have money or someone to help her select a gift?

Waypoint invites the community to join us as we celebrate the season of giving. There are many great opportunities for individuals, families, groups or businesses to get involved with this holiday to help women and children served at Waypoint.
