Happy Holidays and Adopt-a-Family

Happy Holidays and Adopt-a-Family

Hello GLASC members!

The GLASC Executive Board I would like to wish you all Happy Holidays. May you all enjoy the extra time off from work and the time with friends and family!

Since our banquet, we decided to “Adopt-a-Family” through United Christmas Service.  A Huge thank you goes to Stephanie Lancaster, our GLASC Treasurer who coordinated with the service, bought (and wrapped) all the gifts and food, and delivered them to the family!!

According to Stephanie, the family that GLASC was paired with was a single mom of a daughter in kindergarten and a son in second grade. The mom was not able to buy anything, including food, this year for Christmas. Her kids were as excited about the food and clothes as they were with the toys. When Stephanie delivered the food and gifts, she said, “ The mom and kids started crying they were so happy. They could not stop giving me hugs and thanking [me]. This was amazing to them and an answer to their prayers.”

Again, THANK YOU to each and every one of you for the work that you do in keeping people safe at work and for investing in your time by supporting GLASC. We have been very fortunate to be able to support worthy causes throughout the year, including this family, through your membership!

Happy Holidays,

GLASC Executive Board
