(Atlantic) It’s not just kids who have Christmas wish lists. This holiday season West Central Community Action in Atlantic has put together a Countdown to Christmas Wish List.
West Central Community Action serves all of Cass County and works with all three Cass County school districts. West Central facilitates a variety of services, primarily for lower income people, including Head Start early education, Childcare Resource and Referral, the Family Development and Self Sufficiency program, and Low-income Energy Assistance Program (which helps with heating and utilities costs). Besides programs, the West Central Community Action location in Atlantic offers a clothing closet and a toiletries pantry.
Their Wish List for 2022 focuses on stocking the clothing closet and toiletries pantry for winter. West Central welcomes donations at their location in downtown Atlantic (304 Chestnut St., Atlantic, IA 50022) during open hours (Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM). Those looking to donate after collecting items throughout December are encouraged to donate on December 27 after 9:00 AM. West Central also appreciates cash and check donations and gift cards to area businesses selling toiletry items. Questions can be directed to West Central Community Action at 712-243-5421.
