Every December, Volunteer Mid-South holds its annual fundraiser and community service project, providing gifts of books, toys and school supplies to thousands of Memphis City elementary school students. Each year, schools are selected by MCS to ensure that our gifts reach the students with the most need.  The most important goal of Share the Spirit of Giving is to teach children that the Spirit of Giving is alive and well in our community.

The Event

Volunteer Mid-South celebrates Share the Spirit of Giving with volunteers visiting thousands of children in schools throughout the Memphis area.  Children arrive on this magical morning to find gold tinsel sprinkled in the hallways, and on each desk is a special gift for the boys and girls and a special classroom “teacher” box for each classroom.
