Collaboration in Kindness: Making Christmas a Little More Special
Pam Bierbach • December 18, 2018
In Her Own Words: Molthen-Bell administrator Pam Bierbach talks candidly about two amazing groups of people coming together to fulfill each other's holiday wishes.
The Special Needs Breakfast
is an event that the Oak Creek High School initiated some years ago.
A lot of these families don't venture out with their kids to the malls or city events because it can become an issue. People stare, people don't understand if these little ones get anxious and can't wait their turn for Santa.

So my best friend, who runs the Oak Creek Community Center , asked us women for help.
She created a morning event where kids can come see Santa, run around if they want, enjoy making crafts, mail letters to Santa and listen to the Oak Creek High School choir.
With donations from Molthen-Bell and other local service groups, it has become quite a bit bigger than in the past, and due to this generosity, all the kids actually got a present from Santa this year.
It's such a good feeling and I am blessed to be part of the greatest group of women in the world.
Some parents come up to us, cry, thank us for volunteering so they can relax and not feel that anyone is watching their kids act out.
After the kids leave, we clean up, cry and feel good that we can do this for them.
At Molthen-Bell, we believe we are all made stronger with the support of family and friends. That our community binds us in faith, service and common understanding. And that our stories hold the promise of bringing together generations for years to come.
We invite contact from local service groups that share similar values and may be in need of support. Reach us to learn more.
