Country Club 1880 Main St (Rte 38) Tewksbury, MA 01880 to donate a pint of your

During
we will also be accepting donations of new unopened toys and gift cards for Emily Cashell’s 4th Annual
Holiday Toy Drive for Boston Children’s Hospital and the Jimmy Fund Clinic
.
Other gift ideas are new unopened make-up kits, hair products, hats, blankets,
plush toys (with all labels and tags attached), arts and craft supplies, board
games, and card games. Patients’ ages range from 0-21. Emily remembers what it
was like to spend the Holidays at Boston Children’s Hospital and the Jimmy Fund
Clinic during her sister Ashley’s treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
and this is one way that she gives back to them. These donations take a lot of stress
off of the parents who have a child that is a patient at Boston Children’s
Hospital and The Jimmy Fund Clinic during the Holiday Season. It takes the
worry away of how they will time to go out and shop!

I want to wish all of you Happy Hanukkah, a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and
Have a Wonderful New Year

Thank you,

Mark, Erica, Emily, Ashley, and Abagail Cashell
