December at JCEO
December 2022
The Holiday Train was a blast!
Thank you to Canadian Pacific! After a two year hiatus over Covid (during which time they continued to make their annual donation to JCEO), the Holiday Train returned to Plattsburgh and to a huge crowd. Along with the $4,500 donation from Canadian Pacific, we collected $884 and 1,000lbs of food from the community. Thank you to everyone who participated and donated!
The weather may be chilly, but JCEO Staff are feeling the warmth of Holiday Spirit this week with our ugly sweaters, accessories, and costumes!
Staff don't just dress the part, though...
Much like the North Pole, the holidays are a busy time of year for us! At JCEO, we understand how important the holidays are for local families - and how tough the long, north country winters can be. Across the Clinton and Franklin Counties, JCEO offices are filled with the hustle and bustle of preparing holiday baskets, Christmas Bureau items, and winter clothing for those in need.
JCEO staff preparing Christmas Bureau gifts - a record number of families have been served this year!
