Helping needy families
Photo by Shelley Grieshop/The Daily Standard

Parkway Local High School students from the Building Relationships class help bag items for needy people in the Mercer County Angel Tree program. Donations are being sorted and bagged this week by area students and adults at the Celina First Church of God on Fairground Road. Last Christmas season, 450 families received gifts for children, food, clothing and other items that were donated by numerous local agencies, organizations, churches, businesses and individuals. The Angel Tree program began in 2005 and incorporates hundreds of volunteers from throughout the county. To help, contact OUR Home at 419-586-4663.
