CROSS Services – Holiday Toy Drive Collection (November 1-24) 

Spread Christmas cheer this year to local children and youth by donating to the CROSS Services Holiday Toy Drive. We will be collecting unwrapped toys for children ages 0-10 and financial donations to be used to purchase gift cards for students ages 11-18. Donations of wrapping paper also are appreciated. CROSS Services is a non-profit 501(c)(3) social services organization. They assist local families and individuals in need, with an emphasis on ending hunger through access to healthy food. CROSS serves Rogers, Maple Grove, Osseo, Corcoran, Dayton, and Champlin (West of 169) communities of Minnesota.  To donate money towards the holiday gift cards, please make checks payable to Cross Winds UMC, noting CROSS Gifts in the memo line. Online giving is also available at crosswindslife.org (select subfund – CROSS Services). Thank you making the holiday season brighter for our neighbors.
