Each year, during
the holiday season, Bancroft employees raise money for the Adopt-A-Family
program. It is something that the whole company looks forward to and
willingly participates in. Sponsored by the Delaware Department of
Social Services this program is designed to help needy families get
some of their basic needs met for the holiday season. Our employees'
proceeds go toward providing necessities such as clothing, household
items and food.
This year we
had two families with a total of nine children to provide for - needless
to say our shoppers had their work cut out for them. With the generosity
of our employees we were able to raise $1,700.00. Bancroft's volunteer
shoppers used the money
to purchase everything from gloves and hats
to toys, kitchenware and gift certificates.
We hope our families
had a wonderful holiday!
