For the holiday season, CHHH was able to provide nearly 300 children with bags of new clothes, games, books, food and shoe gift cards, as well as many cleaning supplies due to the generous donations from individuals, corporations, organizations and grants including Amazon, Mason Charities, Milford Lions Club Services, Delaware Community Foundation (Potter Trust), Longwood Foundation, Walmart Giving, and Draper Holdings Charities (Bless Our Children/WBOC).
