The Will’s Way Project honors the memory of Will Day, who during his short life spent many days in UNC and Duke Children’s Hospitals. Through many tests and procedures during those trying times, Will was always able to brighten our world with his loving smile.
We seek to bring a little light to the families and caregivers spending long days and nights with children in nearby hospitals with gift bags and care packages.
Calling all Will’s Way supporters I need your help! So here’s what happened, I felt that God was putting on my heart to help western NC through Will’s Way Project this year. I spoke to a new friend from Mitchell County Schools and learned they were looking for ways to help children and families for the holidays. It touched my heart SO much. They have had such devastation and I heard stories about families that lost everything. Do you think you could help us DOUBLE our bag count this year?
As I am typing that, it is very scary and makes my heart beat a little faster! We want to take bags to UNC (150) & Wake Med Children’s Hospitals (75), Durham Ronald McDonald (60) and do you think we could do 200 additional bags for families of children at a Mitchell County elementary school? To make that happen we will need A LOT of help!
Donations can be dropped off at Oxford United Methodist Church 105 W. McClanahan St, Oxford NC or at Oxford Baptist Church, 147 Main St., Oxford NC or at Granville County Schools Central Office, 101 Delacroix St, Oxford, NC.
All Donations are due December 1, 2024.
