Merry Market thinks everyone deserves a merry Christmas
News from the Polson Chamber of Commerce
POLSON — In Lake County, the poverty rate is 20.9 percent. That means 6,110 people in our community are living in poverty and likely will be unable to purchase Christmas gifts for their children.
Polson organizations and businesses rally together to provide gifts and a merry experience. Here’s how you can impact a local family:
— Donate financially
— Provide event services by donating or sponsoring food, coffee, gift wrap, etc.
— Purchase toys
— Set up a toy drive drop-off at your business
— Volunteer at the event and more
Here at the Merry Market, we want to see every family in Polson have a Merry Christmas. WE can’t do this without you. For more information on getting involved, email: ronnie@merry.market and/or visit merry.market to sign up today.
