Open Door Home seeks assistance from the public to make Christmas merry for the kids that it serves.
Tracie Ball, Executive Director, encourages community members to purchase items from ODH kids’ Amazon wishlists. Those who do not have an Amazon account may make a donation by mail or in person at 5 Leon Street in Rome.
Contributions are also sought for ODH’s Happy Days fund, which will enable kids to enjoy adventures during the holidays.
Open Door Home will benefit from Santacon 2025 on Saturday, December 13th at 6:30 pm. The 6th annual pub crawl will be held in memory of Coach Steve Horne, who passed away earlier this year, according to Ball. She adds that details are online at www.opendoorhome.org/events.
A $25 donation is requested to participate in Santacon 2025, for which the starting point will be Giggity’s in downtown Rome.
