Wonders with Wood charity event

Everyone could use something new for their home this Holiday season or maybe you’re looking for just the right gift for someone who’s hard to buy for. Well, you’re bound to find something at the Wonders with Wood charity event to benefit the People for People backpack program. The silent auction will be held this Saturday from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. at the Thermopolis Middle School. All proceeds for the event will go directly to the backpack program, which provide easy to make food items for children to eat over the weekend. Many of our students in the school district are on free or reduced lunches and often have little or nothing to eat over the weekends. They depend on school lunches for their nutrition during the week, but the backpacks filled with food that are sent home with them on Fridays helps get them through the weekend. If you have any questions or would like to donate something wooden for the event, please call Judy Carswell at 921-8264.
