Spring-Klein Chamber of Commerce Christmas Drive in Partnership with Champion Life Centre

Champion Life Centre’s Karen Jones of CLC Care Ministry spoke to local businesses this holiday season and asked us to assist families in our community with providing the basic necessities for area children this year.  The Spring-Klein Chamber of Commerce partnered with the Care Ministry in providing socks to our area’s needy children.  Donations from our members totaled to over 200 pairs of socks (an approximate monetary value of nearly $1000).  With the state of the economy affecting our neighbors, it means a lot to be associated with an organization that cares about the area residents.  Thank you to all SKCC member businesses that participated.    

HEB Ribbon Cutting CeremonyIn Case You Missed It...SKCC Membership Committee and HEB Management and staff held a ribbon cutting on December 17 at the New HEB Spring Market, FM 2920 and Spring-Cypress.  The cake was delicious.  Thanks to all who attended.
