Giving Back for the Holidays: Volunteering for Kids and Families

The holiday months are all about celebrating with the people we love and finding ways to give back to those in need. With safety in mind, we compiled a list of some of our favorite ways kids and families can give back during these winter months. If you have time, services, or money to spare, consider giving to others in need. Those who are giving often gain the most. Spread some cheer and you’ll see. Find links to all of these organizations on our website at lincolnkidsinc.com.
