The Problem

For 53 years (1954) the Greenville Jaycees have taken children from the Salvation Army Boys and Girls Club shopping for Christmas. This year we will once again be taking over 200 children shopping at Wal-Mart. Each kid is given a $25 budget to purchase Christmas gifts for their family. Afterwards the kids are bused back to the Boys and Girls club where up to 50 kids will be rewarded for good grades and behavior with a brand new bike. The others will receive special gifts from Santa. If you are interested in helping the Jaycees please signup on our website at www.greenvillejuniorchamber.org or contact Courtney at (greenvillescjuniorchamber@yahoo.com or 864.294.5400).
