The annual holiday campaign that aids needy Texas County children kicked off Monday.
“Share Your Christmas” involves numerous organizations, businesses and individuals joining to help less fortunate people in the county. The headquarters is again in the basement of the Houston Lions Club den on North U.S. 63.
Hours are 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Applications are taken there.
Cases of kids enrolled in the program will be outlined beginning in the Nov. 22 issue of the Houston Herald, which started the drive 32 years ago. Volunteer Pat Miller is once again the coordinator. For more information, call 417-217-1318 or 417-217-6595.
Monetary donations can be mailed to “Share Your Christmas,” P.O. Box 170, Houston, Mo. 65483.
