Help the Boys & Girls Club of Oyster Bay-East Norwich Fulfill Holiday Wishes for Club Members. With the holidays quickly approaching, staff members are working hard to provide families with the most magical holiday season possible. Listed below are ways the Club is requesting assistance this holiday season:
Make a Donation to Our Annual Fund Drive…Each holiday season, the Boys & Girls Club holds an end-of-the-year appeal to help reach the Club's annual budget. These funds help support the Club’s general operations and give Club members the greatest gift of all - the promise that the Boys & Girls Club will always be a safe and fun place where they are welcome.
CLICK HERE to donate now online, or mail in your donation to the Boys & Girls Club of Oyster Bay-East Norwich, 1 Pine Hollow Road, Oyster Bay, NY 11771.
Secret Snowman Program…The purpose of this project is to enable underprivileged members to receive a special gift to help brighten their holiday season. The parents of those members who are chosen will be given the opportunity to name a gift their child needs or wants. In order to maintain the anonymity of the members, each member will be assigned a number which will appear on the paper snowman, along with their gender, desired gift and size and color, if applicable. The snowmen are color coded, in that the same color snowmen will indicate that the participants are siblings. The snowmen will be displayed in the lobby of the Boys & Girls Club beginning December 1st for parents, board members, volunteers, and staff to select and purchase a gift in time to distribute to the recipient’s parent for the holiday.
If you would like to participate in this program, simply stop by the Boys & Girls Clubhouse after Friday, December 1st, and select one of the Secret Snowmen. Kindly wrap the item listed on the Snowman you select and securely attach it to the package. Please drop your present at the Boys & Girls Clubhouse no later than Friday, December 8th.
Purchase Your Christmas Tree at Dodds & Eder Home…Dodds & Eder Home will make a donation to the Boys & Girls Club of Oyster Bay-East Norwich for every Christmas tree sold! You’ll find fresh cut trees, wreaths, roping, plants, flowers, and Christmas gifts that have come to make Dodds & Eder Home one of the North Shore’s premier Christmas shopping centers!
Give the Essentials…Provide a laundry basket filled with supplies like toilet paper, paper towels, shampoo, conditioner, soap, toothpaste, laundry detergent, bath towels, cleaning supplies, etc., and the Boys & Girls Club will disperse these items to families in need. Donations can be dropped off at the Boys & Girls Club of Oyster Bay-East Norwich to the administrative office, Monday-Friday, between the hours of 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Supply the Club with Gift Certificates…As with many non-profit organizations, budgets are necessary for capital expenses and programming. Funds are not readily available for the needed little extras. In many cases, you may have gift cards that you are not able to use. Our Club is always accepting donations of gift cards and for donating them, you could utilize a tax-deductible donation. In addition, the Club needs gift certificates to provide Club families with relief when times get tough. Gift certificates to grocery stores, gas stations and stores like Walmart and Target are the most impactful.
Provide the Boys & Girls Club with Much-Needed Items…The Boys & Girls Club is currently in need of the following new items: board games, card games, calculators, small prizes for incentives, art room materials, gym equipment (basketballs, footballs and soccer balls), gift cards (Walmart & Amazon), musical equipment and more.
Adopt a Family…Currently the Club has some families who will not have a holiday, unless they are adopted by a kindhearted person.
How does the program work? You contact the Boys & Girls Club's Program/Compliance Administrator, Lori Wood, at LoriWood@bgcoben.com to let us know you are interested in adopting a family. Lori will work to identify a family and provide you with their information and their needs and holiday wishes. Kindly drop your presents at the Boys & Girls Clubhouse no later than Friday, December 8th.
On behalf of Boys & Girls Club staff, board members, volunteers, members and families - thank you in advance for extending your good fortune to the Boys & Girls Club this holiday season!
Provide Hope and Opportunity this Holiday Season!
