BROOME COUNTY, N.Y. (WBNG) — Catholic Charities of Broome County and a woman inspired by her friend are partnering to ensure that kids can celebrate Easter with a basket.
Baskets of Joy started about seven years ago after Wendy Gamache saw a need in Binghamton. She said the program has a personal connection to her past.
“It’s been a blessing. You know, my husband was unemployed at one point, so I understand some needs, and it might not be a need next year, but it might be a need this year,” said Gamache.
Catholic Charities provides Gamache with a list of needy kids who signed up.
This year, more than 120 children are on the list. About 80 children still need baskets made for them.
Baskets can be dropped off at Our Lady of Sorrows Church.
