Dozens of Allen County families in need will have a little extra love in their Christmas this year thanks to WOPAC.
The Western Ohio Community Action Partnership held their annual Seal Christmas with Love event. WOPAC provided 70 families with presents and daily essentials thanks to the event entirely funded through sponsors. A new twist was added this year to make parents feel more comfortable accepting help.
"We're letting parents make stockings for their children," says Centralized Intake Director Marva Cowan. "We went out, got things that you can see that we put together, and they go around and they're allowed to pick whatever it is that they chose for their children's stockings."
WOPAC had a little extra help this year with members of the Lima Senior Spartans basketball teams volunteering to help guide parents.
