Generosity exceeds all expectations

Posted January 03, 2010 10:00 pm

Palatine Township would like to express its deepest gratitude to all the donors, churches, schools and other organizations for again making it possible to provide food and gifts to so many families in need.

The township was able to assist over 400 families with Thanksgiving dinners, 355 families in this year's Adopt-A-Family Program and 582 Angel Tree gifts to financially disadvantaged children and senior citizens.

This community far exceeds what the meaning of giving is and we are forever grateful for all your support and kindheartedness. We would never be able to reach out and provide assistance to the many children and families in need without your continued support and compassionate hearts.

From our families to yours, Palatine Township sends many warm wishes throughout the holiday season. Thank you again for giving the gift of hope and love to all of children and families in need this holiday season. Have a safe, healthy and Happy New Year!
