Small Town Life Episode 57 - Ray Lenarcic and Kelly Brown

In a heartfelt and action-packed episode of the Small Town Life podcast, Herkimer County Hunger Coalition leaders Ray Lenarcic and Kelly Brown sat down with host Dave Warner to issue urgent holiday calls to action that every local resident needs to hear.

Now in its 26th year, the beloved Gram Lorraine Children’s Christmas Program continues to match generous sponsors with hundreds of local children who might otherwise wake up to an empty Christmas morning. With detailed wish lists (sizes, favorite colors, toys, and games – no names revealed), the program has helped an estimated 10–15,000 kids since 1999.

Coats, boots, bikes, and even Christmas trees are part of the giving this year, and late-arriving families mean more sponsors and donations are still desperately needed.
