Optimist Club Donates to Platteville Holiday Project

L-R: Optimist Club Vice President Mark Essex, Platteville Holiday Project Representatives Jo Roling and Tischa Busch

Jo Roling and Tischa Busch from the Platteville Holiday Project committee accepted a donation from the Platteville Optimist Club. The organization helps families in our community who are in need of assistance during the holiday season. They are wrapping up their project for the year and will be putting together more than 90 food baskets for families over the holidays. In addition, there are 80 families in the Platteville School District that have been adopted in the "Adopt-a-Family Program" this year.

Interested individuals and businesses can help Platteville Holiday Project in one of three ways. 1) Make a monetary donation; 2) Adopt a family and you are given a wish list to shop for the family and deliver the gifts for distribution or 3) Adopt a family and have Platteville Holiday Project committee members do the shopping.

Thank you Platteville Holiday Project committee members and volunteers!
