NEIGHBORS from page 28 • Monetary donations to the Salvation Army help purchase gift cards for each family’s teenagers (ages 13 to 16) and food gift certificates to allow the families to enjoy a special holiday meal. Donate directly to the Salvation Army, memo “Day of Giving,” P.O. Box 2654, Paso Robles, CA 93447. • Volunteer to set up and prepare the rooms for Day of Giving, or register recipient families, by clicking on the “volunteer” button at www.prtoybank.com. • Coats, sweaters and sweatshirts are collected to distribute on the Day of Giving. Take gently-used coats to Plaza Cleaners in the Albertson’s Shopping Center or Paso Robles Cleaners on 13th Street. Take new and clean coats to KPRL, Idler’s, Farm Supply, Strawberry Blonde Salon, El Paso Self Storage, The Blenders, and North County Copy & Parcel. Or send a check payable to the Toy Bank, memo “Coats for Kids”, to the Toy Bank address above. For info, call Barbie Butz at 461-1234. BE A SALVATION ARMY BELL-RINGER The holiday kettle campaign, the Salvation Army’s only fundraiser, helps generate funds to carry the organization through the entire fiscal year. With additional costs for the Day of Giving, and continued assistance with utility bills, food distribution, and other services to local families, donations are needed. “Members of the Paso Robles community really step up to help each year,” said Beth Quaintance, the Salvation Army’s SLO service extension representative. “We count on their generosity to put money in our kettles campaign. The need for funds is more urgent now; we have more clients and the various needs are tremendous.” The Salvation Army also creates toy-giving opportunities for families NOT participating in the Day of Giving with its Angel Tree, Toy Shop, and Emergency Toy Giveaway. Want to help with donations of toys, become an “angel,” or need assistance? Call 238-9591 or stop by the Salvation Army Center at 711 Paso Robles St. Tuesday or Wednesday, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. HELP IS NEEDED! • “We have a desperate need for bell-ringers,” said Quaintance. “Sometimes groups will sign up to volunteer for the entire day, with individuals covering different shifts, and we will put a ‘thank you’ sign on the kettle recognizing the group.” Individuals and groups are needed to help ring bells and collect funds at kettles in four separate Paso Robles locations daily Nov. 20 to Dec. 23, except Sundays. Volunteer for two-hour shifts; call 975-5632 to schedule a time slot. • Place donations in the paper kettles at check-out lines in Albertsons. Or, send a monetary donation to P.O. Box 2654, Paso Robles, CA 93447. 30 PASO Magazine, November 2017
