This is such a lovely season. And there are a lot of great community service opportunities happening right now. Too many to list in fact. But we've had a lot of you inquire about what you can do to volunteer, especially regarding the refugees who reside in the area. Our suggestion to you is to head to justserve.org. They have dozens and dozens of local organizations listing their needs. It's an amazing program and we have had a lot of success working with it. Also, our favorite Meridian dental office, bridgetowerdental, is looking for a local family in need to provide Christmas gifts to. If you know of such a family, head over to their Instagram page to get information about nominating them. blackrockboise is hosting a free Ugly Sweater Party on December 17th to support the WCA - Head to their page for more details. Also - if you're looking for a place to drop your Toys for Tots, there are bins in front of all of the local fire houses. And the meridianlibrary has drops for the Meridian Food Bank. Do you know of a local volunteer opportunity or community service event we should know about? Do you have service traditions during the holidays? Comment below to let us know.  Merry Christmas Meridian. It's the most wonderful time of the year. #hellomeridian #dotheright #mymeridian #christmastimeishere
