Redwood: A Place to Grow
December 2021 Newsletter
Make Your Spirit Bright This Holiday Season,
By Getting Involved with Redwood!

There are so many ways to support Redwood, from volunteering and donating, to attending events and more. As we celebrate the season of giving, consider donating a book (or a few!) to the brand new children's library we're building at Redwood, or host a gift-gathering party for Redwood Express (contact Sharon Fusco at sfusco@redwodnky.org). There is still time to make a gift to Redwood's annual operating fund or to the Redwood Foundation and apply it to your 2021 taxes! Click here to learn more.
IN THE NEWS 📰
Redwood was recently featured in the NKY Tribune for partnering with a variety of local organizations to distribute warm coats, scarves, gloves, and books to more than a dozen children to help them through the cold winter months!

Thank you to our friends at Assistance League of Greater Cincinnati, Welcome House of Northern Kentucky, and the Campbell County Public Library for being such fantastic community partners! And a special thank you to Newport Elks 273, for providing the resources and for also donating books to Redwood's new library.

A VERY SPECIAL VISIT

The Fort Mitchell Fire Department made a special visit to Redwood this month to show the children and adults the ins and outs of a fire truck and ambulance. Kids and adults alike asked questions about the equipment, gear and what it takes to be a firefighter. Everyone had a great time meeting these hometown heroes! View more photos on Facebook.

ON DEC. 3, WE CELEBRATED INTERNATIONAL
DAY OF PEOPLE
WITH DISABILITIES

At Redwood, we joined the international community in raising awareness of the challenges, barriers and opportunities for people who live with disabilities.

This year's theme, "Fighting for Rights in the Post-COVID Era," recognizes that people who live with disabilities are among the most affected populations amid the COVID pandemic.
