Century Body Adopt-a-Family Shop and Wrap Party

  • Century Body Kenny Centre Mall Columbus, OH, 43220 United States (map)

Century Body is excited to be partnering with the St. Vincent Family Center's holiday Adopt-a-Family gift giving program. St. Vincent is located on Columbus' East side and services troubled children and their families within our community. Their mission is to "make good kids better."

Last year we shopped and wrapped gifts for 25 children from 5 families and raised over $3,500. This year we are looking to once again adopt several large families. 

We need YOUR help to shop and wrap. We've chosen Sunday 12/2 as our shopping and wrapping day. We will break into small groups and each group will take a family. Our customary shopping location has been Target on Sawmill road and Kohl's right across the street for items not found at Target. We will meet back at the studio for a light lunch/wine/snacks and wrap for a few hours. This is our 6th year and I expect it will be just as much fun.

We meet at the studio at 1:00 pm and car pool to Target. The shoppers shop while the wrappers begin setting up tables around 3:00 pm. This is usually lead by Kathleen O'Dowd former CB instructor, long time friend, studio photographer. So, if you are not a big shopper but LOVE to wrap, here's your chance. If you LOVE to shop but are not a great wrapper, just have a glass of wine and enjoy the holiday music.

Shopping, wrapping or participating in the shop/wrap by donating gift boxes (at least 5) gets you a box marked on the Fall challenge card.

This has been a great holiday tradition for Century Body. We look forward to seeing you all!
