Volunteers are recruited from all corners of the Northeast Ohio region on an annual basis to take part in the organization’s signature community service project.
As a part of the 10th Annual Donté's Gift Express, dozens of volunteers wrapped gifts, wrote holiday cards and bagged school supplies for 500 families at Tower City Center in Cleveland.
Four Shaw High School alums are behind the event: Donté Gibbs, Dominique Tucker, India Moore and Seretha Etheridge. Created in 2013, Donté's Gift Express has delivered gifts to more than 2,700 families in and around East Cleveland and raised close to $15,000. Randomly selected, East Cleveland families will be surprised with 500 gift packages at a later date as a surprise.
