Miller Community Center and the Country Doctor Community Clinic (on 19th) host an annual giant holiday party for the clinic’s patients and other (mostly disadvantaged) families in Seattle. Kids from 0 to 10 years old enjoy games and receive presents, and everyone gets a holiday meal.

Party is Saturday December 10 from 10 AM – 2 PM at Miller Community Center, 330 – 19th Ave. E.

.Volunteer opportunities:

Tuesday December 6th, 5 – 9 PM at Miiler: help wrap the 1,200+ presents for the party.

Saturday, December 10th: volunteer at the party. Turn up at 9AM to be ready for the guests at 10 AM.

Help with set-up for the party, on Friday December 9th, would also be appreciated

(for the real heros) help with clean-up after the party: Saturday 2 – 5 PM.

You can donate presents (for 0 to 10 year olds): bring them to the wrapping party (see above) or drop them off at Miller Community Center (hours)

We could also use the donated services of a childrens’ entertainer/DJ, should you be one or know one!

A bilingual childrens’ entertainer/DJ will be there from 11 – 1. Another good reason to come along!

For further details, or to volunteer for the party, contact Center Director Jeremy Doane (206-684-4753, jeremy.doane@seattle.gov ).
