Jack and Jill Gifts Catholic Charities at Annual Christmas Brunch while the children played table games and chased balloons. Jack and Jill’s Jalilah Dukes then presented the gifts to Catholic Charities volunteer, Judy Tonk, to deliver to the fortunate family.

With small children and a new baby on the way, the family faced a particularly meager Christmas before being “adopted” by Catholic Charities and Jack and Jill.
