Cornerstone Shop & Gallery Helps Wisconsin Bundle Up this Winter Season

LAKE GENEVA, Wis. - Nov. 19, 2014 - PRLog -- Lake Geneva’s Cornerstone Shop & Gallery is inviting residents to drop off new or gently used coats, sweaters, hats, mittens and other warm clothing items as part of the Wisconsin Department of Tourism’s “The Big Bundle Up” campaign.

This is the fourth year of the statewide collection program. To date, the program has collected more than 32,000 winter items to help warm up families in need. In addition to the Cornerstone Shop  & Gallery, other collection sites, including the state’s Travel Wisconsin Welcome Centers, are located throughout the state. Visit TravelWisconsin.com for a full listing of donation sites.

With the spirit of the holiday season upon us, donating winter items is the perfect way to give to Wisconsin families in need. A box will be located in the Cornerstone Shop  & Gallery for donors to drop off warm clothing items. All items donated at this location will be given to the Agape House and the Walworth County Resource Center and Food Pantry.

“We feel truly blessed and strive to give back to the local community throughout the year,” said Karin Bennett, owner of the Cornerstone Shop & Gallery. “We like that “The Big Bundle Up” allows items collected to stay in our community to help keep local residents warm this winter.”
