Toys for Riley

Friday, March 7, 2014

Putnam County Extension Homemakers' Education and Leadership co-chairs Kelly Robertson (left) and Megan Burdine spearheaded a recent toy drive to benefit Riley Children's Hospital Cheer Guild. They set a goal to collect 100 toys in conjunction with the 100-year anniversary of the Extension Homemakers' organization. The committee proudly reports, with the help of the extension homemaker clubs throughout the county, the goal was met and exceeded. Heather Dawes (right), Riley Cheer Guild president, attended the recent council meeting to receive the toys collected and share her personal, inspirational connection to Riley. Joining Robertson and Dawes for the presentation was Extension Educator Jennifer Cannon.
