We\u2019re so proud to be part of this community and to play even a small role in meeting the needs of our neighbors.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The gift drive first began in 2015 when staff asked how they could give back during the holiday season, says Cherne Haskell, MultiCare Inland Northwest regional director of provider outreach.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt meant a lot to us, especially when we unexpectedly had to get ready to take in a newborn. It meant that my kids would have presents under the tree.\u201d<br \/>\n<strong>\u2014 Broadway family<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>These schools are right in our backyard, and we know there are many families struggling to make ends meet, she says.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23499\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23499\" class=\"wp-image-23499\" src=\"https:\/\/updates-www.mccdn.io\/vitals\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/12\/Valley-gift-drive-3-1-690x1024.jpg\" alt=\"People hauling in toys for a toy drive.\" width=\"400\" height=\"594\" srcset=\"https:\/\/updates-www.mccdn.io\/vitals\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/12\/Valley-gift-drive-3-1-690x1024.jpg 690w, https:\/\/updates-www.mccdn.io\/vitals\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/12\/Valley-gift-drive-3-1-202x300.jpg 202w, https:\/\/updates-www.mccdn.io\/vitals\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/12\/Valley-gift-drive-3-1-768x1140.jpg 768w, https:\/\/updates-www.mccdn.io\/vitals\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/12\/Valley-gift-drive-3-1-1035x1536.jpg 1035w, https:\/\/updates-www.mccdn.io\/vitals\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/12\/Valley-gift-drive-3-1-1380x2048.jpg 1380w, https:\/\/updates-www.mccdn.io\/vitals\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/12\/Valley-gift-drive-3-1-scaled.jpg 1725w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-23499\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">People hauling in toys for a toy drive.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Broadway Elementary has one of the highest rates of students using the free and reduced lunch program in the district, says Lori Johnson, Broadway principal. Vincent, North Pines principal, says 70 percent of his students use the program, and the school enrolls 60 English language development (ELD) students, one-third of whom are Ukrainian refugees.<\/p>\n<p>Ten families from both schools are selected by school staff and asked to fill out a form of items they need and items they want. How \u201cfamily\u201d is defined is up to them \u2014 whether that\u2019s a single parent and their children or a multigenerational household. That information is then dispersed to the teams at Valley who have volunteered to adopt a family for the year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m always very struck by how hard it is to get the parents to say anything they want. They only want things for the kids,\u201d says Rhiannon Catlett, North Pines counselor. \u201cUsually, we finally settle on things like restaurant gift cards to take their kids out for dinner.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Catlett says the students are very sweet in the process and hesitant to request bigger-ticket items, but she always encourages them to at least ask.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe were really grateful for everything they got us.

She adds that sometimes families say no when asked to participate because they believe another family needs it more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople are doing their best with what they\u2019ve got. They\u2019re working hard to keep everything afloat,\u201d says Lynn Hutchins, Broadway counselor. \u201cAs we celebrate the holidays and are excited about time off together, this season can also cause stresses and strains. Lots of kids get their meals at school and some parents\u2019 jobs don\u2019t give them that time off.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not only does this drive help those with financial constraints, but also those who don\u2019t have the time or transportation to go shopping, Hutchins adds.<\/p>\n<p>Both schools use a variety of criteria and background information to select families each year. They take into consideration which families are using resources like meal bags, and which families have experienced extreme circumstances recently, such as illness or job loss \u2014 or even homelessness.<\/p>\n<p>Vincent adds that his students\u2019 families have historically faced financial hardships, but this year compared to last, families seem to be struggling even more with housing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt goes beyond the specific gifts a family gets and the specific holiday it impacts,\u201d Johnson says. \u201cThe gift drive creates a feeling of caring. I\u2019ve seen students and families just light up because they see that someone actually cares about them enough to do this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Catlett says in her role as a school counselor, she often sees these students when they\u2019re struggling. She can\u2019t help with many of those challenges, but the gift drive gives her the opportunity to spread a little extra magic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI personally end up crying at one point or another,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s so awesome to see, helps us keep going and it\u2019s great to know we have that community support.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On a bitterly cold winter day, carloads of gifts pulled up to North Pines Middle School and Broadway Elementary School in Spokane Valley.
