UPCOMING EVENTS Mark your calendars for Wellspring’s upcoming events!

Saturday, December 12th & HOLIDAY STORE TOY DRIVES Sunday, December 13th 2015 One of Wellspring’s most unique homelessness prevention programs is our donor driven Holiday Store. Each December 19th Annual Holiday Store Wellspring opens its doors to hundreds of low income families Wellspring House, 302 Essex to “shop” for toys for their children. $2 buys three toys and Avenue, Gloucester one book per child. Last year this program served 764 children, k ensuring not only that these children would have a happy p holiday, but also that their parents would not be forced to get L behind on bills in order to do so. The operation of the Holiday Store relies strongly on toy donations. Please consider brightening the holiday season for Monday, May 2, 2016 those in need by heading up a toy drive for Wellspring in 18th Annual Women Honoring your community.
