For nearly 20 years, Project GRACE has coordinated a holiday giving program. This year, members of the Scarborough community donated more than a thousand presents (and warm socks, hats, mittens, and more) to the organization. Volunteers collected the gifts from a dozen giving trees around town including ones at the Big20 Bowling Center, Inn by the Sea, St. Maximilian Kolbe Church, Scarborough Public Library, and many families brought special presents directly to us. More volunteers sorted the gifts, wrapped and tagged them, so that the Scarborough Police Department could take them door-to-door right before Christmas to more than 200 children. It was an amazing effort of joy, good will, and cheer at the holidays, and for everyone who helped, we are grateful.We only wish you could have seen the smiles on the faces of the kids!
