Our charity for January and February 2025 is the Warm the Children organization, a program led by the Rotary Club of Hamburg. All money collected is used to buy coats, boots and warm winter outerware for children in need who reside in the Southtowns.
In 2024 a record 564 children were helped. Among those assisted were 57 residing in local Hamburg hotels, whose parents had no transportation to WalMart. Buses were arranged to transport them to the store, where volunteer shoppers helped them. Seven school districts were served: Hamburg, Frontier, Lake Shore, Eden, North Collins, Lackawanna and Orchard Park. 13 Pre-school agencies and local churches were also served.
