A Wrap on the holidays

Posted

MS volunteers wrapped up three weekends of free gift wrapping late Christmas Eve at South Beach Parkway Plaza in Jacksonville Beach. And Ponte Vedra and Beaches area shoppers proved very generous. Donations totaled more than $3,000, all of which will provide programs and services for the more than 18,000 North Floridians impacted by multiple sclerosis.

Volunteers included MS staff, Ocean Palms Elementary School teachers, and Bike MS Big Banana teammates.

Hallmark and Five Below provided wrapping supplies. MS has offered free gift wrapping for five years at the Jacksonville Beach location. Next year, the volunteers will include home or office gift pick up, wrapping and delivery in Ponte Vedra Beach.
