ATLANTA, GEORGIA, UNITED STATES, October 31, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Easterseals North Georgia (ESNG), a community-based nonprofit that provides high-quality services to children with disabilities and families, announces its annual holiday donation drive to benefit local children in need. ESNG serves over one thousand children in its Early Education and Care program who live at or below the federal poverty level. Approximately thirty (30) percent of these children have a disability. Each year, in addition to providing family support services, ESNG hosts a holiday donation drive to gift a warm coat and a nice toy to the children in the program. Last year, 1406 children received gifts as a result of generous donations.

For many families in our programs, the holiday season can be an extra challenging time of year, explained Donna Davidson, CEO of Easterseals North Georgia. We are fortunate to operate in North Georgia, where communities come together to help their neighbors. With the continued support of generous individuals and philanthropic organizations, we give the gift of hope, warmth, and joy again this year."
