TUTWILER — “Lending a Helping Hand” was the theme for West Tallahatchie Habitat for Humanity’s annual Christmas project.
West Tallahatchie Habitat, along with board member Sykes Sturdivant, donated $4,000 toward bringing joy to families in need over the holiday season.
“With the generous donations we were able to provide coats, winter hats/gloves, clothing, digital gift cards, Walmart gift cards, earphones, earbuds, tablets and toys to 35 children throughout the West Tallahatchie community,” said Sherri Hilliard, volunteer affiliate coordinator for West Tallahatchie Habitat for Humanity.
“As we continue our mission of helping one family at a time, our Habitat affiliate is glad that our Christmas project was able to help us serve more families this Christmas,” Hilliard added.
The parents expressed their gratitude and thanked West Tallahatchie Habitat for their generosity.
“Oh, what a blessing!” Mrs. Tokeia Powell told the affiliate volunteer staff.
