Looking for that unique holiday gift for the special someone who has everything?
Mary Kautz from Clintonville had a wonderful idea last year. She has eleven siblings, so she gave each of them the same gift: a backpack filled with school supplies donated in each of their names through W/NP to a child in Nicaragua. Through Mary's efforts, her siblings each received the opportunity to enhance someone's education.
You can give the same type of donation. We have gift cards, which can be enclosed in the backpack, to let the children in Nicaragua know who cared enough to share their holidays with them. Why not put a smile on a youngster's face for an entire year?
