While Christmas is a magical time for those who celebrate each year, it also can be a stressful season for those who are experiencing financial challenges. Panorama Chiropractic is participating in the Cloverdale Christmas Hamper program to help improve the lives of local families. We are adopting a local family this season. The family consists of a mother (41), a boy (15) and three girls (11, 10 and 7).
The Cloverdale Christmas Hamper program has been serving the community of Cloverdale and the surrounding area for more than 28 years. Hampers consist of presents, gift cards and non-perishable food items.
Presents and Gift Cards
If you would like to participate, please purchase a gift or two for each child with a total value of $50-$100 per child. Not sure what to get? Gift cards are great ideas for older children.
We also are accepting donations of a grocery store gift card ($35-$75) so the family can purchase fresh food items for the holidays.
