Holiday Events – Reilly’s Giving Spirit

Every year we participate in an annual holiday gift drive organized by a transportation partner for the clients of Clearbrook, which provides services for children and adults with intellectual disabilities. The individuals served range from children diagnosed with developmental delays at birth to the unique needs of seniors with disabilities and all ages and diagnoses in between.

Since 2009, our entire office participates in adopting a list of residents and fulfilling their Christmas list wishes.  The staff at Reilly gives a cash donation, Reilly International matches double for each dollar donated and we volunteer as helpers to distribute the gifts at their Christmas party which includes Santa Claus and his Elves.

We also organize the shopping, wrapping and create a very special presentation for each resident we adopt.  Besides, we sit and talk to them, receive hugs and experience the joy they feel when their names are called to collect their gifts. It is overall a very moving and fulfilling experience for all and we would like to share this experience with all of you.
