Donations do twice the good

In an effort to purchase toys and wish list items for local families in need, Moriches Community Center is seeking donations for its Santa’s Workshop. Donations can be accepted through the end of the year.

Although the wrapping event cannot occur this year due to restrictions caused by COVID-19, this is the 17th year that outreach during the holiday season has been hosted by the Moriches Community Center. A generous donor will match donations dollar for dollar up to $20,000. Thus, donations do twice the good.

“This holiday season will challenge more families than ever, and we need your help,” said Kathleen Johnson, the executive director of the Moriches Community Center.

Johnson assured that 100 percent of the proceeds go to neighbors in need.

“Together, let’s brighten the holidays for our struggling neighbors,” she said.
