The Holiday for Giving Program is a community organization run by volunteers; it functions solely on donations from individuals, organizations and local businesses. All donations are given directly back to those in need in the Wallingford Community. The core committee of 15 volunteers meet during the year to plan the December give-aways. We operate with the co-operative effort of many organization
s including the Yalesville Volunteer Fire Department, Peer Advocate and National Honor Society members from Lyman Hall and Sheehan, Dag Hammarskjold Girl's Basketball team, Dag Builder's Club, students, teachers, and administrators in all the town schools, the Wallingford Public Library and the Town of Wallingford employees. We receive support services from the Wallingford Youth & Social Services, the Public Works Department, the Electric Division and all the Fire Departments. There is a true pooling of resources of volunteers, organizations, clubs, corporations, small businesses and individuals. With the dedication of time, donated goods and monetary donations from all these groups combined, we are able to provide hundreds of Wallingford families with a little "Holiday Magic". We hope you will help us create some "Holiday Magic" this season
