The Kunes Family Foundation is proud to support the Lutheran Social Services of Illinois (LSSI) Christmas Giving Drive in Galesburg, helping spread warmth, hope, and joy to families across our community this holiday season.
Each year, LSSI’s Christmas drive provides gifts, essentials, and encouragement to individuals and families who may otherwise go without during the holidays. Through donations and community partnerships, this initiative brings together volunteers, churches, and local supporters to remind every person that they are seen, valued, and cared for.
