COVIA Corp. Sponsors Christmas Party for Kids at Local Soup Kitchen

12/31/2020

0 Comments

 
Huntersville, N.C., January 4, 2021 –   Angels & Sparrows Soup Kitchen hosted its annual Christmas Party for Kids on Friday, December 18, 2020.  The ticketed event, sponsored by COVIA Corp., was exclusively for the children of families who visit the soup kitchen on a regular basis.  One hundred and eight-five children attended the party. Each child received three gifts, in addition to a stuffed animal, book, holiday portrait, and take-home meal from Tenders Fresh Food.

 "At a time when families have scrambled to meet basic needs and children were facing the possibility of no gifts to open Christmas morning, COVIA Corp. enabled Angels & Sparrows to bring much needed smiles to children in need in our community. COVIA's generosity embodies what Angels & Sparrows is all about, seeking not only to nourish the body with dignity, but looking beyond physical nourishment to other ways a community can show love and care for our neighbors in need. We are grateful for their partnership in serving our guests with dignity."  

The Marines' “Toys For Tots” Program provided the bulk of toys needed for the event.  Toys were also donated by Amazon, as well as students at Lake Norman Charter School, and individual donors who purchased toys from Angels & Sparrows' Amazon Wish List.  COVIA provided the funding needed for food, decorations, photography, treat bags.  Volunteers served as personal shoppers and assisted with set-up and tear-down of the event.  The number of people allowed in the building for the event was limited to allow for safety protocols and proper social distancing for guests and volunteers.
