The 2023 Gesu Christmas Angel Tree Project Committee Thanks You!
We are once again humbled by the generosity shown by the parishioners of the Church of the Gesu. Over 190 families which included more than 400 individuals received beautifully wrapped gifts or gift cards from their wish lists. These individuals and families were connected to a total of 14 local organizations, parishes as well as identified individual families experiencing hardship:
St. Jerome
St. Philomena
University Heights families
Cleveland Heights families
La Sagrada Familia
Christ Child
EDWINS
Hattie Larlham
Malachi House
Womankind
Zelie's Home
L'Arche
AIDS Task Force
Heights Emergency Food Center
and new this year:
Boys Hope Girls Hope
Volunteer shoppers were used this year to help with fulfilling some of the wish lists with generous cash donations from parishioners. Gesu once again managed to give a measure of love and caring to hundreds of individuals in our local community.
In Gratitude,
