Fox Cities Salvation Army hosts Christmas Distribution, thousands of gifts to be handed out
Dec 17, 2024
(WFRV) - The Fox Cities Salvation Army kicked off its Christmas Distribution event, as weeks of collecting donations will finally culminate in gifts for thousands of children in the Fox Valley.
Thousands of different toys and family items will be handed out throughout the next four days.
"That's why we have four days, so we don't have a line outside," Executive Director Kristal Knudtson said. "So we have enough volunteers to provide services to walk them through and get their gifts, pick up whatever they might need, and get their gifts wrapped on the way out."
