Waupun Holiday Help is again preparing to help those in need during the holiday season.  We are now accepting applications and donations to help Waupun Area School District families who are struggling financially during the holiday season.  Families requesting assistance may pick up applications at the Waupun Area Fold Pantry, Waupun City Hall, and the National Exchange Bank.  Applications must be completed and returned to the location mentioned above no later than November 22, 2024. 

We are also looking for help from the Waupun and Fox Lake communities.  There are two ways community members can help.  One way is by making a monetary donation.  Checks may be made out to Holiday Help and mailed to Holiday Help, PO Box 151, Waupun, WI  53963 or dropped off at the National Exchange Bank.  All donations must be made no later than December 6, 2024.  We are also looking for organizations, families, or individuals who might be willing to “adopt” a family.  Adoption of a family would entail purchasing gifts from a list that the parent(s) provides for each child in the family.  Anyone interested in “adopting” a family should contact Jessica Buchholz at the National Exchange Bank (920-324-5551). Any questions may be addressed to their email address which is [email protected].

Distribution of gifts and food coupons will be made to families who apply on Saturday, December 14th.

Holidays are more fun when we establish traditions.  Let this be one of your holiday traditions in our community.  Helping someone who needs us is truly a gift.
