Annual Events @ The Rathgeber center

We host celebrations to help families feel at home while they are experiencing major life setbacks. These events bring a small bit of happiness during a time of need.

  • The children at Rathgeber go back to school with new friends and necessary supplies to get them through the school year after we assemble bags to accommodate their needs.

  • Pumpkin painting, treats, and costumes! Oh my!

  • Santa, reindeer, scent of tidings, The Night before Christmas reading, stockings, crafting, Christmas galore!

  • Members volunteer for shifts at The Salvation Army warehouse to help organize gifts for little angels and hand them to their parents to ensure all faces are smiling on Christmas morning.

  • Volunteers get together to make wonderful memories and build Easter baskets for kids at the Rathgeber Center for Families.

  • Just a little token to the parents to help soothe some of life’s journeys and burdens.

  • Members assist with VBS activities led by educators from The Salvation Army Staff. We help with activities like crafting, bible verse studies, singing, and games.
