With more people in need and less money being given, charities anticipate that there will be a greater demand this holiday season.[[In-content Ad]]To help address this need, DePuy Orthopaedics is donating a substantial amount of funds to Combined Community Services.
"We felt it was important to give back to organizations such as Combined Community Services so they may continue to help others in our community this holiday season," said David Floyd, worldwide president of DePuy Orthopaedics.
"Our organization's budget has been in a deficit this year due to the increased needs within the community," says Lewis Jones, executive director for Combined Community Services. "DePuy's donation will help us catch up and be able to meet more needs in the future."
CCS was founded in July 1984 by the Greater Warsaw Ministerial Association to stop duplication of services provided to those in need in Kosciusko County. CCS has become "the place for people in need" to come for assistance.
From food, clothing, diapers, baby formula, or personal/hygiene products to financial assistance with utilities, CCS meets a variety of needs. CCS's motto is a "hand up, not a hand out", and they have developed other programs, such as Hand Up or Project Independence, to provide low-income households with the tools needed to become financially independent.
