Gift Givers Anonymous Needs Your Help to Wrap 1,200 Donated Items

Gift Wrapping Party in 2013
Gift Givers Anonymous (GGA) has collected 1,200 gifts for families in need in Albuquerque, and needs your help to wrap these presents. These are "gently used" items that have been donated of acquired throughout the past year.

 "We take those gifts and turn them into “new” gifts that can be gifted to people throughout the ABQ community," said the organizers. "On one special weekend in December, we all go out into the community and give gifts away to people!!

"The focus of the project is on community collaboration and on spreading joy throughout the ABQ community," said GGA organizers. "It is about gifting others, total strangers, just to spread joy and kindness."

So here's how you can help. GGA has organized four gift-wrapping parties in November and December.  There are three parties remaining, including this evening.
