KIDS KOUNT
Kids Kount program impacted more than 50 children in 2018
The Kids Kount program is administered by Greater Wausau Christian Services (GWCS) and presents gifts to children of those in jail in the Wausau area.
The Kids Kount program provides Christmas gifts to children with a parent held at the Marathon County Jail. This year, 2019, 52 children received gifts or gift cards. We were even able to do this during 2020 with COVID safety restrictions. The program is managed by Marlene Schalow and Sally Scinto-Reinertson.
GWCS would like to thank the members of the community who support the program. Community members give of themselves financially and through volunteering time to wrap and deliver gifts.
GWCS also thanks 89Q Hope is Here (89.5 FM) for their kind and generous help with a toy drive at the station.
